      vote splitting is a myth that relies on the presumption that I would vote for anybody except the candidate that I’m choosing. it presumes that The votes belong to some candidate and giving them to another candidate is siphoning them away. The truth is that the votes belong to voters and it’s up to politicians to earn them.

        That works in an idyllic world, but sometimes I want my actions to leave an impact I agree with.
