There seems to be some confusion concerning my earlier announcement that I'm voting for Jill Stein of the Green Party in November, so let's clear things up:
I believe in strategic voting and advocate a nuanced approach that will accomplish for progressive-minded people two objectives simultaneously. The following plan will 1) minimize Trump's chances of victory and 2) send a message to the Democratic Party concerning their need to pay the working people of this country some attention after election day.
The following states...
New Hampshire
Pennsylvania
Ohio
Wisconsin
Iowa
Virginia
North Carolina
Florida
Colorado
Nevada
...are swing states. Voters there should vote for Hillary Clinton in order to minimize Trump's electoral vote (the one that counts). All other progressive-minded people should vote for Stein, given that their vote will not change the outcome in their states. That's the nuanced approach to this election I'm advocating.
