    I am writing in (who?)
    I kind of misunderstood the question, I think. IF the candidates were different, i.e. Bernie Sanders was the Democratic nominee, I would vote for him.

    Interested to see who my state (NJ) votes for. Would think the state would be for the clintonian, but who knows these days.

    do people who are voting for the 3rd party candidates do you really believe either Johnson or Stein is worthy of being President or is it just a vote against Clinton and Trump?

    I believe between Stein, Johnson, Clinton and Trump, Stein is the one most worthy, otherwise I would not vote for her. She's the only one who places any real emphasis on environmental issues. In a world inhospitable for human life, there is no such thing as a "president".

    Depending on your state, a third party vote is a vote for Trump or Clinton. I voted for change in the primary, now I'm voting for less damage.

    I do not believe any of them are worthy....yet I believe people must vote. Cannot vote for the top 2 choices because I find them both to be horrible choices. I know 3rd party won't win and refuse to be "forced" to vote for one of the choices I abhor.

    This is where I am as well. Johnson is awkward, and clearly under qualified in terms of foreign policy to say the least. But he isn't Trump or Clinton, so that's a big plus. In my state, it is a foregone conclusion that Clinton will get the nod, so I use my vote to express my displeasure with the shit show the two major parties have subjected us to.

    Even though my vote is critical living here in Florida I will be voting for Jill Stein. I hope she's on the ballot.

    Peace

    She is, she's on 45 state ballots.
