There is not an independent party. Do you know what a party is?

Good for you. Switch to a party that has no power whatsoever to have your voice never heard or move to the most ironically named party ever.

I'm so fucking pissed at Sanders for not either taking over a minor party and making it relevant or forming his own liberal party to extend his vision beyond his political career.

Enjoy.

I can count. And I will be voting to remove the Orange Anus.

good on you

Glad you are saving it for 2021, and I might be with you on that. For the present though, I will be voting against Trump who I see as not simply inept, but dangerous, so Biden will get my vote. Not the nominee I wanted to see, but the only viable option to eliminate Trump.

I don't like the two party system, which is so entwined with, and likely responsible for, the polarization of the country.

I regard the GOP as blindly faithful to their party and blind to their country. My vote will be used to do whatever is most effective for ending the Republican hegemony. So until we can break the lock on our two-party system, I have to vote blue. However, a long-term solution is to get rid of the electoral college and the voting system that prevents a third party from ever gaining any traction. Decades ago, the Green Party was just as useless in Germany; voting Green was a throw-away vote. But NOW, ahah, the Greens have a few seats in their parliament and must, of necessity in many cases, help to build a winning coalition. Shazam!

So the answer is four more years in hell? Seriously?

I will stay Democrat because I live in a closed primary state. I've considered registering as an independent, but that always stops me. I might have even considered switching parties if the Republican nomination were in doubt.

Cast my first vote in 1979.
Became an Independent in 1983.

@Blackatheist

You are throwing your vote to Trump. A big mistake.

I have always considered my self an Independent and have voted Green in some circumstances even GOP in the distant past. The present Conservative GOP has absolutely nothing to offer me and that often leaves me little choice but to vote Democrat. JUST VOTE.

Same! Fuck the singular party system and the Dems in particular. Independent or Green all the way.

I’m with you. I just can’t bring myself to vote for Trump or Biden. Last time I voted Libertarian but I’ll probably just sit this one out.

Now is as good a time as any to give up on the Dems. At least at the national level, they are a fake opposition party to the Repubs.
