I'm not a Trump supporter. I will be voting for Gary Johnson
That's silly. You might as well stay home on election day. I agree with you on 3rd party tickets. As a more or less libertarian social liberal/fiscal conservative, I usually like them better also.
I know the moral high ground is to vote where your conscience takes you. But to waste a trip to the polling station to throw away my vote, basically handing it to the established opposition is truly fruitless.
With the broken, corrupt system we're stuck with at the moment, you need to vote the lesser of two evils. Because the others will NEVER WIN. On rare occasions they may steal a local position. But never a presidency. Last I heard they were all single digits.
You can say you're setting an example or voting in protest. Nobody is listening. Nobody has been listening for the past 200 years. All the independent runners do is split the party's vote that they are most aligned with. Doing then no good.
If you're planning on voting Johnson, PLEASE hold your nose and vote Trump. Any other vote is a vote for another four years of failure and marginalization.
