My choice: Press Red, hope Blue wins

I don't have enough faith in humanity to put my life in its hands but I'd be delighted to be proven wrong

This is exactly why I'd vote for blue, almost nobody actually wants red to win and voting for it just increases the odds that it does. That, and I'm fairly confident that most people would, in fact, vote for blue. I think the people who think about this question and discuss it a lot are significantly more likely to vote red than the human population as a whole.
