    Use numbers

    Sure, when you show me where I referenced numbers. I referenced a lawsuit which having happened in, yknow… a court, can be found easy peasy by anybody who wants to put in two seconds of effort.

    What you’re basically coming off as, to be honest, is just another establishment Democrat who is putting more energy into fighting leftists than you do Republicans.

      In 2012 I voted against Obama because I thought he was too conservative. I didn’t think his healthcare program went far enough, I didn’t like his foreign policy of continuing the Bush wars, and I thought he turned out to be far more establishment than he had indicated as a candidate in 2008.

      I voted for Jill Stein. I said it wasn’t a protest vote and that I was voting my conscience, but it was totally a protest vote. Stein would have been the worst president in US history, and I even knew that at the time. I did it because Obama had a predicted 99% chance of winning my state, so I figured it was safe and would communicate to the democrats that there was a preference for more left leaning candidates.

      What I did not do was try to campaign for Stein to try to get swing state voters to vote for her. I didn’t try to get swing state voters to not vote.
