    All the weird Jill Stein hate on here is what made me decide to vote for her lol. Just sent in my ballot last week. Don’t worry I’m not in a swing state. 🤣

      Given your reason, you seem like her ideal demographic. Hope it was worth it.

          Its not what it cost ya, its what it says about you. You are little more than a contrarian a reactionary in all but name, an ideological dead end.

            Ooh, there it is. Love it when y’all tell the truth.

            In reality, at least for people living outside of swing states, the reason you care how we vote has nothing to do with affecting the outcome, it’s because of what it expresses. It’s an expression of disloyalty to your little sports team. Ofc, if we’re regarding it from the perspective of it as expression, than we ought to express support for good things and opposition to bad things, which can be done more effectively by supporting a party that actually represents our interests - which is why libs generally stand by the pretense that votes in safe states are relevant to the outcome, because otherwise you don’t really have a leg to stand on.
