    the most successful so-called third party in history got a constitutional amendment. as far as I know, they didn’t win any congressional seats.

        doesn’t seem effective at keeping Democrats out of office either. voting for Democrats doesn’t seem to keep Republicans out of office, either. maybe you should reconsider your goals for you vote.

              So, considering my goals are to keep Republicans out of office, and you admitted that third party people aren’t effective in doing that, why would I vote third party? At least in Nationals. Local I feel like they have more of a shot.

                voting for Democrats doesn’t keep Republicans out of office. in fact, even if Democrats beat Republicans, the Republicans still take office (gw bush, Dr oz, many others)
