I guess your title really gets to the heart of my take on this. If there aren’t material consequences for most of the people who voted third party I really don’t understand the anger a lot of people feel towards them. In swing states sure, but for the rest of the people? It just doesn’t make sense to me unless there’s some fundamental misunderstanding about how our elections work.
I took your response to be supportive of Philly D’s post, but sorry if I misunderstood.
Yeah no worries I was more looking to genuinely engage with the question he asks. No blame before the question is answered :)
