    I’m thankful that I live in a solid blue state so I dont have to vote for either genocidal candidate.

      You’re happy with the outcome but still gotta say you don’t approve of the outcome? Kinda weirder than just voting the better choice, but what do I know I guess.

        I’m not happy with the outcome at all, we are going to have another right wing president who explicitly supports genocide. Even though I find Harris to be abhorrent and disgusting, she is obviously the lesser of two evils.

      You do have to vote for a good candidate though …. I challenge you: from one blue state to another, who can get the biggest margin of victory? My state vs yours (assuming we’re different) …60% Harris? 65% Harris? Can we do 70%?

      Also in both the best case scenario and the worst case scenario, it’s very helpful to demonstrate the largest popular vote win for Harris. Politicians might turn like a windmill, spin like a whirlpool, but they do pay some attention to votes

        I challenge you from one blue state to another, dont vote for any candidate who has pledged support for Netanyahu’s genocide.

        The margin that matters is 5%, can a third party break the 5% barrier and get matching national funds? It will be the first step in breaking this evil duopoly and the “lesser of two evils” disaster that is destroying our democracy.

          And yet voting is about more than one issue. Atricities are happening in more than one theater. There’s more to life than one atrocity no matter how big. A US leader occasionally takes time off from running Israel to run US
