The Ross Perot vote convinced me that voting third party was a waste of time and had a good chance of tipping the election in favor of the candidate I liked least anyway. But even before, using a lesser of two evils philosophy always gave me a choice that I felt I could live with, even if I didn't completely like the candidate.Well, that way, no matter who wins, you can always say, "Don't blame me, I didn't vote for him/her."
Now we come to 2016 and our choices. I have decided I cannot in good conscience vote for either Trump or Hillary. Both of them have far too many downsides for me. So I have decided I will be voting for Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate. I have always felt their party best represented most of my ideals anyway, but as I said before, I felt it was wasting my vote. This time around, I don't care. I will vote my conscience and take what happens. For those of you who really do not know what the Libertarian Party is about, here is where you can read up a little to find out:
