Quote:it's a little song and dance that is meaningless. you voted for Hillary... that means you voted for Hillary.  there is no section on the ballot where you explain why you chose the candidate.

 

well, yeah, obviously.  But what is your point exactly?  As I said.  It's zero-sum.  A vote for hillary is a vote against trump as well.  While a vote for stien or Johnson is a protest vote against both parties... 

 

While you are throwing away your vote on the 3rd parties, you're making a statment as well.  Even though there is no actually write in that says you are doing so.

 

The game makes a difference.  I'm not trying to be a total jerk-store here---  But these are nuances that people who have experience understand.  It's not un-surprising to me that a typical trumpette would not understand this nuance.
