So, I have been giving this a lot of thought and come November I won’t be voting for team blue or team red in the upcoming elections, but I will be voting for a candidate I belive in.
I have decided that my vote will go to Claudia de la Cruz because she lines up with my beliefs.
Some might say that I’m throwing away my vote and that this will just let Trump become president since I’m not giving Biden my vote, but honestly he doesn’t represent me anyways and why should I vote for a party that doesn’t deserve my vote anyway?
I hope Trump goes down in flames all the way to hell where he will have pineapples shoved up his ass while dressed as a French maid, but if the Dems loose in November, it won’t be because me or many others just didn’t vote for them, it will be because they did not do anything to show us they deserve out vote.
Sure Biden has done a bunch of stuff for the American people, but I just can’t look away with the horror of what is happening in Palestine and be ok with him or other dems calling anyone who sympathizes with Palestinians as being pro Hamas or pro terrorism.
Sorry to anyone who isn’t in the US and sees this post, I know the US politics are super annoying for you all, but I just wanted to get this off my chest.
TL;DR - I’m not voting for Biden just because Trump bad. I’m voting for someone who represents me.
I can see both arguments for and against voting for a third party. Ultimately it’s your call and you’re gonna do what you’re gonna do. I do think it’s a sign of a deeply broken system when people can legitimately think that casting your vote for another candidate is a waste though.
I’m in the UK and whilst it’s not exactly the same an awful lot of people will say that a vote for anyone that isn’t Labour is a vote for the Big Bad Tories. And whilst I do agree that it probably doesn’t help get rid of the Tories it’s also a pretty bad indictment of how broken the electoral system is.
