    splitting the vote

    the narrative of vote splitting presumes i would ever vote for your candidate. i wouldn’t. if any splitting is happening, it’s that you won’t vote for my candidate, and when i phrase it like that you will see how silly it is.

    only a vote for a candidate helps that candidate. a vote for any candidate is a vote against all other candidates.
