    Why bother voting at all? What difference does your non-Democrat, non-Republican vote make? If you really feel the need to be self-righteous about it, save yourself the energy, stay home, and just tell people you voted for Cornel West or whoever. They’ll never know otherwise.

        I’m not trying to suppress anything. It was a question. Again: Why are you expending the energy to vote if you know your candidate won’t win?

        You haven’t answered it. Will you?

          you will forgive me if I don’t believe you are “just asking questions”. it feels like sealioning to me. and I read the repetition and demand for an answer as petulance.
