I’m sick of the two party system also but also recognize that’s the system in place. Requires voting reform for that to ever change, which I support. I’m still going vote for democrats in the meantime because anything else, to include third party or abstaining, is ultimately supporting the republicans whether one wants to admit it or not.

If enough people, 5% of the population, voted 3rd party in one election, it gives the 3rd party the ability to get on the ballot in every state. This goes a long way.

Neither side wants ranked choice voting. Neither side is going to give up power.

We have to vote something different to change the 2 party system. Not going to change itself.

I'm sick of voting which seems to go nowhere.

How about we all just do something instead.
