Three's A Crowd: The 2016 Presidential Election

[Turquoise Blue]

Well, now I'm second-guessing my decision.

LaRoucheism. Not even once.

 

[napoleon IV]

The fact that the LaRoucheites are doing better than the Republicans is the most SLP thing ever.

This poll is proving the age old AH adage that you can't ever offer people a third (or here, fourth) party option and ever expect a remotely useful response for RPing.

Well, it did give me a push in to figuring out fourth-party candidates for 2016, so that was good

It is useful for that, but it's reminding me of how that one guy a few years ago did All US Presidential elections and it ended with with the Socialist Labor candidate beating Lyndon Johnson and the Liberty Party winning in the Pee-ACW era because every election involved people voting for whatever the left most fringe option was when those parties couldn't manage half of a percentage point of the actual votes.

the Socialist Labor candidate beating Lyndon Johnson

Actually no, it just ended up with the Dems winning every single election from 1928 to now with the exception of Eisenhower and oddly enough, Ford

My bad.

Ford isn't that crazy 1976 was a race between two Conservatives and Carter passes the Religious Right smell test.

Together, we'll beat back the great satan of our times, the so-called "Queen" Elizabeth Windsor! Say "No!" to the influence of Perfidious Albion and its drug empire!

Is there any Socialist party not running anti-semites?

Well, I guess you could always go for the Transcendalists if you insist

They're so irrelevant I'll have to put you on half for that. Should have done it with the ISP and Libertarians but oh well

 

[Yossarian]

[much grumbling as i change my vote]

We can do that? Then I'll jump ship to the oddest name on the ballot.
