If you have any preference at all between the two party nominees then you are not throwing away your vote. You are voting for that preference and your vote counts.

Never-trump republicans, new-age anti-science liberals, and yeah low information voters who just recognize his last name. But I too would guess he would siphon more from trump voters.

Not only do we essentially throw away your vote if you vote for a third party, but states just straight up flip every vote for president that doesn’t align with the majority.
