There is a better way! Ranked choice voting means no more voting for the lesser of two evils. Look into fo yourselves and others - vote to change the voting systems near you!

Five states banned RCV this past election. You'll never guess which group made that happen. But hey, both parties are bad.

But I'd say first past the post voting is antithetical to democracy and one ought to fight to remove it.
