      if you’re not American, I would understand that to be a reasonable suggestion. not how it works here, though.

      under our system of voting, third party votes are less than worthless. I would rather that not be the case, but here we are.

      If you’re American or if you’re not simply ignorant of that fact, I assume you’re salivating at the idea of getting a reluctant biden voter to vote third party to help secure your authoritarian party win.

      The system is set up to only have two options. It’s intentional. Also the VP used to be the party that lost. That’s how much it matters to vote after the parties pick a nominee.
