      Well, third-parties do have a place. If it’s a close election and you piss people off, you could lose due to their protest votes.

      Maybe not quite the same, but I do believe the strong showing for Progressives in primaries last time around did influence the platform for the moderate that won the nomination for the Democrat party.

      That’s arguably similar to voting for a third party and it did make a difference
