Turns out, if you're further left than either realistic candidate (because FPTP), it makes it really easy to figure out who you should vote for. "I wonder if I should vote for the person who's not left enough for my liking, or the one is so far beyond that as to be the diametric opposite of left. Whatever shall I do?"

Well, the electoral college isn't actually FPTP, it's even worse than that.

You’re not wrong. I was keeping it simple.

eh. one thing is to choose a candidate who seem less bad somehow, another is to be an actual liberal.
