“[T]here are a couple of ways of approaching a vote in a presidential election. The first and most obvious — and the one I recommend — is: voting for the candidate you prefer. (A subset of that approach is not voting if you don’t like any of the candidates: That, too, is usefully expressive.) The second is: voting to send a message to one party or the other. … But don’t inflict your ‘binary choice’ horsefeathers on your friends and the general public. There are lots of ways to use your vote, many of them effective as political expression and almost none of them likely to be very consequential in determining the outcome.” (09/04/24)
