I'm saying this sincerely: it's fantastic that a growing minority of Americans have finally understood and begun talking about the critical flaws in their broken electoral system. it really only happened to this election cycle, as far as I can see.
living in a broken system does not invalidate your vote.
it may make their vote less effective, but a third-party vote is just as valid as any other.
they're living and voting according to their principles.
The system is broken, but that doesn't mean you have to abandon your principles.
their vote is as valid as any other.
