voting third party is a waste if you support one of the two major party candidates, pretty simple n*rds

*election night broadcaster voice* incredible, it appears the election came down to 10 posters in the no rules politics forum of a dying comedy site being convinced to vote green instead of hillary. trump wins

Mr. Nice! posted:Perot absolutely stole it from Bush, though. It might have been competitive without him running. Teddy did the same thing in the early 1900s with the bull moose party. In the abstract indirect way where he provided a bridge for people to switch allegiances and depressed turnout for bush? Or in a hard statistical way where if Perot had been struck by lightning on Halloween, HW would have won? 1 could maybe be true, 2 is 100% false

I read something a while back that tried to say that perot's 20% of the popular vote wouldn't have all gone to Bush. While that certainly is true, a two person race between HW and Bill would have been significantly closer if a very large number of conservative votes didn't go third party. Now in 1996 Perot had little effect, but he grabbed 20% of the popular vote in 1992.

actually all those votes were wasted, so they didn't count towards the vote total

Man, it is kind of an indictment of something, though, that the Democratic Primary horrorshow was pretty much the only time in this shitbox of an election that people were actually debating policy.

So Bernie actually did do nothing wrong. (I'm still glad he won't be president.)

And even then, it was more of a debate between rhetoric and policy... it was just that the policy candidate was given equal weight. As someone who enjoys reading position papers and economic analysis, this election cycle blew. Also, I'm so very alone.

I love people who worship a person but won't actually do what they tell them it'd be like if Jesus appeared to a bunch of evangelicals and said "nah that whole abortion thing is nbd, I just don't give those ones souls" and they wrote down "burn the fornicators"

Not everyone who votes for Trump is necessarily a misogynist racist. But everyone who votes for Trump is willing to support one.
