A vote for any third party is a wasted vote and a vote for Obama.
No matter what you believe.
“A vote for any third party is a wasted vote and a vote for Obama.”
Why is is wasted? Because my candidate won’t win? Well, if you vote for McCain in California, he’s not going to win. Yeah, I know, everyone loves to bash polls here, but McCain really has no hope of winning California. Are the people voting for McCain anyway wasting their vote?
The reason why this obsession over polls is corrosive is that it might depress turnout. There are a lot of California Freepers and I expect that most of them will turn out to vote for McCain, but isn’t that just a waste, according to you?
The only wasted vote is a vote not cast.
