    Yes, that’s why we should have RCV. Until then though, we’re stuck with first past the post voting and not voting for Biden is basically the same as voting for Trump. This could flip enough people in battleground states to let Trump win.

    It’s stupid and she knows it but she’s doing it anyway

      And what will be next elections reason to not change the system, fight against it at all, and just “vote for the safer pick”? Change has to happen sometime or not at all. So when, pray tell, do we start caring that we’re stuck in a shallow 2 party system and do something about it? When it’s convientant?!?

        If there’s a risk of not having a next election then that changes the calculation

          Our elections are already a sham. We already don’t have truly free elections in this closed two party system. So again, when do we make change? It’ll never be convientant.
