Yes, in a classical two-party system, voting for lesser of two evils is the only option.
But in the US, there's also the question in which state you live in. For example, there's no point voting Republican in California, nor Democrat in Texas.
- rm_-rf_slash 10y agoThere are several Republican enclaves in California (particularly in rural areas) just as there are several Democratic enclaves in Texas (particularly in urban areas). I live in Ithaca, NY. That means we have a very, very liberal municipal government, gerrymandered-to-shit knucklehead (mostly) Republican legislative representation in Albany and DC, and a moderately liberal governor (Cuomo). These layers matter. But if you don't mind tyranny then by all means don't vote.
