    I didn’t say anything about probabilities. I’m talking about who is right for the job.

      This is what you said:

      I don’t vote for someone unless I want them to win.

      So I guess you mean you only vote for people you fantasize about winning even if they have absolutely no chance?

      What does that achieve?

        sometimes the people I vote for win.

        but why would I ever have over someone if I didn’t want them to win?

          Because if you vote for a person who actually has a chance of winning, you actually make a difference.

          But sure. Jill Stein definitely has a chance of winning this time around. Not the last two times, but definitely this time.

            what do I care what their chances of winning are if I don’t want them to win? why would I have over someone if I don’t want them to win?

              So neither Trump nor Biden will do a single thing you want to happen or a single thing you want to stop happening that the other will not? Not one?
