You are obviously welcome to vote however you see fit, but my strategy is to vote for the least-bad electable candidate. I see voting for someone that will never get elected as a poor strategy. Symbolic, but also not in my best interest in reality.

Fortunately, there isn't really anyone down the rankings that I like any more, so it's not a super hard decision.

Oh I know I’m throwing my vote away. But they both represent interests that I am dead set against. I mean I guess I could go for Kalus just to get this douche McKee out of office. Not that I think for a hot second that she would repair the damage that McKee did to healthcare, but then at least I can have my KingBaby moment to attempt to screw him. Lifelong democrat here but I don’t even recognize my party anymore.

Exactly. I wanted Matt Brown but I knew I'd be absolutely throwing my vote away if I voted for him.
