LOL. You dweebs can't organise to vote for a third party. How are you going to organize to destroy the system when the system has military hardware.
This is what I don't get about the 3rd party tribe. Literally no 3rd party is even remotely organized enough to even come close to winning a federal election, much less local elections. I don't know if any amount of physical brain damage could make me dumb enough to vote for a 3rd party presidential candidate. It's just so uniquely pointless.
The thinking is that more votes for a third party will move the policies of the two larger parties further towards the third party.
Sometimes it's suggested in safe democrat seats.
I think US politics is unusual in that the primaries determine what type of candidate is going to set the tone for the party.
As in, the dems are a broad church, that could have a conservative or a progressive leader.
