If that's how we're diving it up, then your vote only really matters if you live in a swing state.

Anywhere else and your pissing in the wind, no matter which way your facing.

Sure, but it would be a lot easier for Joe to win KS than for Jo to win any state. Joe only has to convert like 8% of trump voters. Jo would have to convert 40+% from the two real parties. I'm certainly not gonna help Trump win, so I'm gonna vote for whoever has the highest chance of making him not.

It sucks that we're in a system that forces us to vote against the worst party rather than for the best one, but like. This is the system we're in. If we pretend it isn't happening, we're only going to hurt ourselves.
