Legit question for understanding...

Is it really a majority if more people didn't vote for the winner? Considering votes for other candidates and non voters, I think there's a message in that that shouldn't be overlooked.

Like maybe the people needing more choices. And the government not being run by one or two parties...

This is a non bias question, looking for thoughtful answers. Thank you.

I feel like these type of questions and concerns come from the side that lost.

You're not wrong. But lamenting about it after your side lost is not the way to affect change.

You mention 3rd party candidates. You belong to any 3rd parties? You advocate for them? Support them? Sign up, go to the meetings, go out and knock on doors for them? If not, how do you expect them to be a force in politics?

This isn't something you pine about after bitter loss. It's a calling. It requires people to be serious about it and spend years getting this off the ground.

What seems to happen is the moment a legitimate 3rd party crops up, it gets subsumed into one of the 2 major parties.

@SumKindaMunster I'm not affiliated with any party, hence why I mentioned not being bias.

If I'm bias against anything it's our system in general.

Thanks for the input anyway.
