It really depends on which state you live in whether or not you have the luxury of a protest vote. If you live in NY state that has a 20% lead for Harris, sure, some people can vote Jill Stein or something. But if you live in a state that actually might be close or not an obvious blowout, you can't vote that way. You actually have to be tactical with your vote, not idealistic or symbolic.

Even if you're in a solidly blue state, don't fuck around with your vote.

You fuck around, and we all find out.

Back in 2000 I traded my vote for Nader in a swing state with someone in a solidly blue state. We should do that now.

Kinda like a tactical wee?
