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 didn't feel like I wanted to support either. It seems like past few years a big part of the voting base in the US has not really voted 'for' anyone, but almost always 'against' someone else.

We really need more political parties. Maybe with some sort of tiered elections so that unless someone gets 70+%, the lowest two results are dropped and another vote happens.

Something different anyway

@dirge yeah just voting to oppose wasn't very inspirational this year.

I like that idea, but definitely something different that represents the vast majority and not a narrow agenda.

@ScreamingFox single issue voting is the worst.
