I voted third party in 2016 every chance I had. Then I voted 50/50 between Democrats and Republicans where that was the only choice. In 2018 I didn't vote for any Democrats.

I voted third party in 2012 too, though I was a delegate for Ron Paul. Once he was out of the running I voted Libertarian.

The system is rigged heavily even at the local levels against third parties. The only way those ideas currently have a chance is to infiltrate the two parties.

For clarity. I did vote for Obama in 2008. Then he proceeded to do exactly the opposite of what he campaigned on for every single issue I voted for him on.

Yes. I have voted third party every electiion since at least 2000. Maybe longer with the exception that I voted Paul as a republican one year when he was actually on the ballot in my state (he was allowed on the actual presidential ballot in my state at that time—not write in).

I have tried to convince many that third party is not a “wasted” vote — any more than any other vote— to no avail.
