    You are not using your vote wisely.

    I’m voting for who I want to see win.

    The Democrats are just as guilty as the Republicans when it comes to not wanting 3rd parties to have any chance.

    Clinton, Obama, Biden. Lots of years there. And nothing.

    So I’ll keep voting for who I want as president. And right now, that’s Jill Stein.

    Which is totally my right.

        I’ve voted independently and 3rd party for most of my adult life. And I am very old. So I doubt there will be any “gotcha” moment for me.

        Having said that, I am not loyal to any party. If I see a candidate I like, I vote for them, regardless of party.
