    There's a dumb-but-well-meaning former troop on my FB feed who's gone hard into Jo Jorgenson lately (out of disgust for both parties, which is healthy) and sometimes I want to call him a dumbass for his misdirected support, but then I remember we both live in CA so who fuckn cares lmao.

        He probably wants to vote for some mythical decent Republican but is too embarrassed by the current GOP to do it. This describes a lot of libertarians.

        Thought about it, but again, California. Why bother? Not worth the effort.

          Care to explain? Is there any state where you would change your behavior towards him?

            Nah probably not now that I think about it.

            I just know it would be an uphill battle and one extra vote for a losing candidate isn't really a motivator.
