    Election stats? You ever hear the phrase “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics”

    Stats on their own given a poor analysis of an average joe/jane can mislead just as much if not more than a talking head can.

    The core fact remains that voting for a third party under a first past the post system is risking permitting the greater evil to win.

      Yes, I think it’s from Twain.

      I backed my assertions with stats, however poor you think they are as analysis.

      What do yo back up your assertions with, other than lame DNC, CNN, and Vaush talking points?
