I am by no means a constitutionalist, but Kirk is right here. Go vote, if you’re in the US. There has, arguably, never been a more important election in US history.

    That’s not how US voting works. You would need to get the majority to vote for a single guy from a party no ones heard of

      It’s hardly a party no one’s heard of and yea you would need a majority (duh?). But by all means, don’t vote with your principles; treat it like a strategy game and keep perpetuating a broken 2 party duopoly. That’s been a great way to affect change over the last century.

        That’s not how you get out of a 2 party system. You need to get rid of first part the post. First past the post forces all voters to vote strategically, only people who don’t understand how the system would fail to see that.
