If you are form the US, you are having your primaries by now.

Those are the ones where good people appear and need your vote to stay on the race. Go participate there, instead of complaining about the main election.

This is the correct answer.

The people who support the "both sides bad" argument and the "protest non-voters" are children who still need their parents to order their tendies for them at Chili's.

  • Get involved.
  • Understand the actual candidates.
  • Vote in the primaries.

The general election should be the last step in executing your civic duties and by that time you should be voting for your team.

Just checked ballotpedia and found out that my rep has competition this year. Looked the guy up (Kyle Gauck) and he some ok stuff on his campaign page including that he won’t be taking cash from aipac and expanding healthcare access.

Aug 11th is voting day :)
