Yeah, exactly. I hate it. I hate that NOT voting for Biden is one vote closer that Trump could win again and end our democracy like he is promising to do. That's scary. And if that does happen we will never again have ANY votes for anything, let alone protesting a foreign genocide.

We need to all be pushing and campaigning to get Ranked Choice Voting in as many states as we can.

Until then the reality is we get to choose between A or B. There are no other viable options. You can choose to not vote, you can vote 3rd party, but that does absolutely nothing at all but toss the vote away. And you will never convince me otherwise until a 3rd party candidate gets anywhere close to the other 2. And 2-5% of the country is not that.

It's good to see that the current choice is helping spread awareness about RCV

Mr. Beast’s latest video did more to raise awareness of ranked choice voting than this election.

Edit: Okay, it was 3 weeks ago. RCV is at the end.
