    No, friend, we are upset that you can’t see the reality of being locked into a two party system right now.

    Your vote for a third party won’t get you the outcome you want, and is more likely to make it so you can never get the outcome you want.

    Lot’s of us want ranked choice voting, among other changes. We definitely will not get that if third party voting results in Republicans winning.

    So join us, use your vote pragmatically right now and then tomorrow start working towards reforming our elections.

    If you have read and understood all this and you still don’t understand how this current reality works, I am worried you have a reason that you don’t want to understand it.

      That was alot to tell me that ”now is not the time, support my candidate and it will get better”, like has been told to me since before the turn of the century. That you don’t understand why I am upset, sounds like you just want to “stay the course.”
