I voted 3rd party as a Green voter last presidential election, and when I looked at the actual numbers I saw that lately we have been outnumbered by the Libertarian voters as well… so, if someone is advocating arguing* that 3rd party voters take away votes from the two major parties then I think it seems important that that ideology would also be applied to Libertarians. I wonder if Democrat voters really think that the most hardcore small-government, pro-gun voters are also going to cast a vote for them if they were compelled to cast a vote of one of the two major parties instead of their 3rd party?
You seem to be confusing a social responsibility to vote for a viable candidate (which this thread is referring to) with advocating for a compulsory two party system (which is a terrible idea)

My social responsibility compelled me to vote 3rd party so I think it’s you that has misunderstood the intent of my post.
There it is again: “Democrat voters.”
Do you know why that’s a notable thing to me that I’m bringing it up, I wonder?
