Quote:A lot of people learned their lesson about voting for 3rd parties back in 2000 when Gore lost by a minute margin.

 

The problem is that as little as I or anyone else might want someone like Crist, the alternative is to possibly allow someone as sinister as Scott to be elected.

 

Before we can make progress we have to stop the bleeding, and the continued viability of the republican party is that bleeding. If the republican voters would just reject their platform and accept that they have to stop voting for the same thing just because it's what they want to be right, and accept what really is right then we could have third party viability.

 

Either that or you can start trying to affect election change to ranked choice (instant runoff) voting so that you don't have to feel like you're wasting a vote by going third party.
