See that really big GREEN section? More people DID NOT VOTE than actually voted for either Harris or Tr*mp.
Were you one of those Green non-voters? Why? "Protest" vote, just didn't like her, couldn't bring yourself to vote for a Black Woman, didn't think your vote mattered . . .
It doesn't really matter what your reason was. The point is, your non-vote ultimately helped Tr*mp. There are other studies that show this (breakdown of the Green section into party registration*).
Unless you are ok with (waves hands vaguely) all of this - and if so, why are you on my feed? - VOTE BLUE, NO MATTER WHO
We can work on elected Democrats to educate them and possibly change their view on various issues. Republicans today, as has been amply demonstrated over the past decade or so, are spineless lackies who don't give a damn about their country.
Step 1 is to save our country and restore democracy. Then we can move on to further steps, and focus on [insert important issues here].
Our 2-party system sucks, I admit that, but it certainly isn't going to change before this November. Our only choices are to vote for Democrats or Republicans. Hold your nose if you must, clutch your pearls, whatever, but VOTE and VOTE BLUE.
* Pew Research Center:
In the 2024 election, non-voters were closely divided in their party affiliation, with 48% identifying with or leaning toward the Democratic Party and 45% identifying as or leaning Republican.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ck43zcc4t2xrqawxjoqpj45p/bafkreih5o27d66ws5ethheja3yf3uoz445ppmdyccyehnw2yxkj3ebutnq)
