    This is the result of a broken system. If every election comes down to either the status quo or blatant corruption the system has already failed.

    Inevitably corruption will win at least once.

      I’m guessing you still think the silence of your abstention will “make your voice heard,” even after witnessing all the damage it caused in 2016?

          Please explain how a minority of abstainers will positively influence candidates.

          I can easily explain how the exact opposite occurs in one sentence.

          Conventions receive detailed reports on active registered voters and tailor their next candidate to capture more of that audience.
