    Is that based on the assumption third party voters would vote democrat otherwise? If I would either not vote or vote third party, how does my vote help trump?

    Maybe the democrats shouldnt count votes they don’t have?

      When the options are democracy or dictatorship and you choose not to vote… it’s kinda gross. I get that you got a failure of a system over there, but the fight to update your democracy should be done after you choose to have one.

      Because under FPTP no vote or a third party vote is identical to a vote for the opposing candidate.

      Maybe you should stop trying to justify being a fucking traitor.
