Okay Don, didn't really want to discuss it here, but......
While I can see your point, and myself loathe the thought of Ms. O'Brien getting elected.......
Doesn't the fact that the race is so close tell you something? Like maybe there's not whole lot of difference in the two "major" (and I use that term loosely) candidates?
Perhaps if everyone that felt they were wasting their vote on the so-called "minor parties" in fact voted for them, perhaps one or more of them (God, no not the GREENS!) would garner 20 or 30 percent of the vote, and send a message not only to the republo-crats, but also to the media, which blacked out most of this to begin with.......
The only wasted vote is one for the lesser of two evils........or one not cast at all.....
