These are the ones I know who are running and not one of them is a good candidate to be president in my opinion.
This may be the first election I don't vote in since the first time I voted in 1988.
I can't not vote. The important thing to keep in mind is that 33% of the Senate is up for elections and 100% of the House. So even if you leave POTUS blank (or write in something ridiculous) you should go vote. Because Congress is how we stop the crazy in the WH. I'm right there with you, there are no good options, but you still have legislators to vote on.

Yep. That is the thing that kills me about this. "Let's fix all of this controversy and divisiveness with two moderate candidates. But let's make sure they are both horrible people so no one will be happy."
