And yes, those voting 3rd party are wasting their vote. Voting for the losing guy with no chance is the equivalent of staying home and not voting. Personally, i most likely am staying home as I live in utah and the results of my state are already decided. If they didnt have the electoral college system i might be more inclined to vote. I dont know why they dont do popular vote...

You have a very bleak outlook on voting 3rd party. For me, it is a statement against something that I don't approve of. If I vote for Romney or Obama, I am saying that I approve of whichever one I pick. But I don't. Therefore, I won't vote for either one. Part of the reason why 3rd parties never do well is because everyone thinks that it's throwing away your vote. You should vote for who you think will do the best job, not just the lesser of two evils.

yeah i agree, if you vote for one of the big two all the time, nothing will change. the way is see it, eventually so many people will get pissed off with them both, they will actually vote for who they want, and they could well win. What if it turned out millions, wanted to vote for Johnson, but didn't because they fought it was a waste, he well could of had a chance of winning. Elections shouldn't be so predictable with just 2 "choices", they should be many!
