I went third party in 2016 because I was disgusted and at the time I didn’t think my state would ever be anything but red. Since then I’ve learned that I am very much in a swing state and Republicans have made it very clear they are going full fascist. There is at least one conservative think tank spreading the idea that we need a “Red Caesar” which sounds a lot like Mussolini to me. I don’t know if it’s possible to shift the Democratic party further left or not at this point, but I won’t be voting third party again unless there is some massive change in the way we handle elections.
