I understand and actually agree with you. But I just utterly despise two main candidates. To me, it would be akin to choosing what type of cancer to get. I know it’s a cliche, but that’s just how I feel.
Another poster suggested that write-in is an option. I didn’t know that.
It's not just the main candidates, it's the policies they enact and the people they appoint to run the different departments.
Are you happy with the status quo, an administration that has gotten us involved in wars and let immigrants flood the borders and our cities?
I will almost definitely vote for the Libertarian unless the Libertarian candidate is Chase Oliver, in which case I will not vote for anyone for POTUS -- for the first time ever since my first POTUS vote in 1972.
I'm supporting Jacob Hornberger in 2024. He's the closest thing to Ron Paul since... Ron Paul.
I'm curious, though. Why don't you like Chase Oliver?

He's too young (imo), has almost no political experience, and supports ranked choice voting. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chase_Oliver There is no mention of his education, and as for his past background, 13 years in the restaurant business is mentioned, along with the positions as an HR rep and sales account executive. Hardly presidential material, in my opinion.
P.S. Btw, I only mentioned Oliver because he has been in the most primaries this year, although Ballay received almost 22,000 votes in the California primary. I would be happier with either Ballay or Hornberger, although Ballay doesn't seem to hve any real political experience, either, and Hornberger is too old (74) for my liking. (I don't know anything about the other Libertarian candidates.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_L...tial_primaries
Let's face it -- ALL the current candidates for POTUS are horrible (imo). Why there aren't any politically experienced and sane candidates between the ages of 45 and 65 is beyond my understanding.

I would never leave my vote blank, but this round I will be picking the best 3rd party candidate for my ballot.
I am not afraid of another 4 years of either Biden or Trump, even though I think they both contributed to the mess we are in now, so I wont reward either of these losers for terrible job performance.
My vote will be a protest vote, because at the end of the day, whether it is Biden or Trump I will still find a way to live my life and be successful. Unlike these whiny retards that have to rely on a politician to hold their hand and figure **** out.
The problem is not that we need to hold the hand of a politician to have him help us figure **** out, we hold their hands to keep them out of our pockets and away from our money.
The biggest threat to this country is the Open Border and Biden is all for it. The Dems are all for it. Biden broke it on day one of his term and he refuses to fix it. Illegal Aliens are costing every State hundreds of millions of dollars. In my state, MA. the admit that the Illegals are costing us $70 Million per month. The actual number may be closer to $100 Million with more of the "migrants" arriving everyday. Where is that money coming from? The answer is tax increases and services to citizens being cut. Okay you don't get welfare but how about the road/ bridge in your town that is being pushed back due to lack of funding? Perhaps the Police and Fire departments can't get new equipment because there is no money? The schools need translators so there will be a proposition 2 1/2 over ride and it goes on and on.
A third party vote may be a protest vote but what chance does that candidate really have? There can be only one choice come Election day and the question is, do you think America is worth saving?
I've chosen not to vote in the past when the choice came down to 2 unpleasant candidates (Clinton and Trump in 2016). While I am appalled that either Biden or Trump are their party's nominees this year and would prefer not to vote for either one of them, there is no way we can take another 4 years of Biden. He has been an unequivocal disaster. The damage he's done - and continues to do - may take decades to unwind. As such, I'm voting for Trump. He was a decent President, but his childish antics are growing tiresome. I'll take childish antics over complete incompetence and a relentless anti-American attitude any day of the week. Biden has got to go, even it requires voting for Trump.
As a Democrat, I'm sitting this one out, and on election day I'm going to dream, dream, dream that we break this country up into 4 or 5 countries, and there'll be 4 or 5 Presidential races to watch.
Leaving the ballot blank will actually become a vote for Biden because when the pollsters are tallying the results they will be sure to fill in the spot that you missed and that will be next to Biden.
Love, Loathe or Lump him we all need to vote for Trump. This country cannot take another 4 years of Biden and his Ilk.
You don't.
Who you yourself vote for isn't going to make a material difference.
You live in MA.
Whether you vote for Trump or vote for your cat, Biden is still going to win MA.
