The Rant
Tuesday, November 2, 2004
This is my election special. If you voted for Nader, and you're
in a swing state, I say "Good for you!" Way to have a pair! If
Bush wins, I hope that pair gets cut off!
There was some vote swapping sites, where people offered to vote
for Nader in their non-swing state if you'd vote for Kerry in your
swing state. People say this lets the numbers come out the same
letting the 3rd party candidate get your support while you help
oust Bush.
This is the WORST THING A PERSON WHO SUPPORTS NADER OR THIRD PARTY
POLITICS COULD EVER DO! Third party candidates have a long history
of affecting elections, even if they don't win them. If you trade
votes, they no longer affect the election. If they don't affect
the election, whatever hot button topics (like the environment) that
third parties endorse is NO LONGER A BIG CONCERN OF ANY OF THE OTHER
CANDIDATES. If a candidate knows he can win an extra percantage or
two by promising (and hopefully delivering) a little extra environmental
protection, well, he'd prolly strongly consider doing it. If the
votes get swapped, he gets those percentage points for free.
So. If you support Nader and live in a swing state, vote for fucking
Nader. And lock your doors at night, because people will riot if
Nader costs Kerry the election. But still, have a pair, okay? |
