I live in Florida, where Biden has zero chance. Tell me how voting for Biden is better than pissing in the wind. I’ll vote for the socialist candidate to at least help show that movement getting larger.
I appreciate the motive behind it, but I don’t think your strategy is effective until we have national ranked-choice voting.
Say you are given the choice of Starbucks drip coffee (black), or Jonestown Kool-aid. You are going to be force-fed one of them no matter what. You have a vote to choose which one you prefer.
In your scenario, you say “milkshake” in the hopes that maybe next time a milkshake will be an option, and in hopes that the rest of the voters are smart enough to avoid cyanide.
I don’t think Trump has as much of a lead as you think in Florida. It’s unlikely, especially if potential Biden voters vote third party, but it’s far from impossible. Making people believe it’s impossible is part of the strategy though. Why participate if you’re going to lose anyway, right? It’s not likely Biden wins, but it’s possible and you could actually effect it, unlike the places where Biden is guaranteed a win.
At least consider watching the polls, and if it gets closer consider changing your decision.
Tells leftist money and strategists that there are blue voters there, they just need to put the money and time there. Make it so Republicans spend more money in your district next election cycle, which means less somewhere else.
You should already be there on election to vote for reps in congress, state issues, what’s one more mark of a pen for Biden?
Republican spend so much time/money suppressing voter turnout/the ability to vote. If you don’t vote, you’re literally giving them one of the things they want most.
I think my socialist vote tells the DNC there’s even further left people here and they should move more left if they want any chance in hell of capturing it. Or at least that’s the ideal, I don’t believe it’ll actually work.
I’m voting because there’s stuff like abortion rights and marijuana on the ballot.
It won’t but what am I gonna do about that? Vote for Biden in Florida? He’s going to lose this state. We have the electoral college. My vote would do nothing.
Now that we have a six week abortion ban, with abortion on the ballot as a state constitutional amendment, and one for legalized recreational marijuana, there is a very significant chance for Florida to be in play.
Many people here are very upset with the state of insurance, especially homeowners. The Biden campaign just came out and said they will be targeting Florida to flip it.
Every vote will count, remember a few thousand votes gave us Rick Scott, we have a chance to remove him as well. There’s a lot at stake this year.

So we can bring up the popular vote again as argument to get rid of gerrymandering.
Also, if everyone thinks like that then it you would never notice how many actually voted a certain way.
You are playing into the Republicans playbook.

NARRATOR: They’re not.
Cool but the state’s choosing Jonestown Kool aid anyways so what makes asking for Starbucks coffee better than asking for a milkshake

I’m voting because there’s stuff like abortion rights and marijuana on the ballot.
And if Trump wins the next election and effectively ends democracy and voting, how will that help move the DNC even further left?
It won’t but what am I gonna do about that? Vote for Biden in Florida? He’s going to lose this state. We have the electoral college. My vote would do nothing.
So who are you going to vote for?
Claudia de la Cruz
I can hear the music for Curb Your Enthusiasm.

I’m definitely voting on the ballot measures. But unless something drastically changes it’s not gonna even be close here on the president
