The "divides the vote for X party" argument only works if you assume that the third party vote already belonged to one of the two major parties to begin with - and it doesn't.

@benroyce

If that's the case, then voting third party would have no effect on the other two parties.

I've been told that my vote for a third party helped Harris in the last election... I've been told that my third party vote helped Trump in the last election.

Both can't be true.. and if they are, then I need to be arrested and jailed for voter fraud, because that means I voted three times with one vote.

Third party voters are voting their conscience, as they should, and divides nothing. -c-

@benroyce

I don't agree on the necessity of Ranked Choice.

In the Presidential elections, the candidates with the most electoral votes wins.

It doesn't matter if there are 2 or 20 parties.

The system was set up before the "two parties" even existed. The first few elections were party-free; candidates published what they stood for, and people voted based on their wishes.

If you vote third party, it's because you don't agree with the left or the right, or their candidates, and that's all.

@benroyce

Pretty much why I've voted third party for the last six elections...

I keep hoping more people do so, so a third party can get into the debates and provide another point of view, and someone else to vote for.

Maybe the rise of a third party will make the other two pull their heads out of their butts and do the job right, because NEITHER party has done so in recent memory....

@benroyce

I agree.. both parties need to give us candidates we can vote FOR, instead of candidates to vote AGAINST...
