    There is actually a third option this time around, not that he’s any better with bird flu on the way. But no it’s never an either/or proposition. You are in fact allowed to leave that spot on the ballot blank.

      Just understand that you have zero ground to stand on by not voting.

        Yet another fallacy meant to coerce votes for bad candidates. I’m not politically disengaged. This is a political choice.

          If you’re not participating, you’re not in the conversation. Simple as that.

      As long as you’re voting on everything else on the ballot, fair enough. Also, I’m hoping you don’t live in a battleground state.

        Oh yeah. It doesn’t work if you don’t vote at all. They have to know they left those votes behind.
