    Is there any third option in the ballot? Not voting is as good as voting anyone you think is worse

      Jill Stein is running, but there are going to be a lot of states where her name won’t make it onto the ballot, although she can be written in.

      I’m thankful to have ranked choice voting in my state. Every state should push for it as much as possible. Generally, the people who are against RCV are the ones who benefit from restricting the will and voting power of the voters.

      Usually people advocating not to vote for Biden are advocating for voting for PSL or another third party, not abstaining.

      Not meaningfully in a first past the post vote. Ranked choice or some other alternative, then sure…
