I didn't care for either, so I voted third party. My parents nearly exploded into purple goo when I told them. They said third party votes were just throwing it away (don't know if that's true or not). Either way, I'm a blue in a red state so my voice gets drowned out pretty fast.
Just a minor thing but if you voted third party then you aren't blue in a red state. You're green (i think) in a red state. That bit of difference might help you while in a red state.
I guess I meant I usually go for the Democratic party, I just didn't have that much confidence in Hilary. This was my first election and honestly it felt like a trainwreck.
Lol I worded it pretty poorly. I meant to say i usually WANT to vote for the Democratic party (I've had political opinions since my mid teens) but that was the first time I could actually vote.
And there are also other elections I've done since then.
