If you don't vote for someone who can actually win, it has exactly the same effect as not voting at all, which is to help elect the candidate you would least like too see win.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

He was a fabulous author, if you have not read any of his books you really need to. He died young unfortunately, he was an amazing thinker.

He lives alone. I told him to get an absentee ballot and vote from his town's city hall on a day he is well and able. He has a caregiver who drives him to dr. visits and to buy groceries. Sometimes he gets an Uber pick up. I'm gonna drill this idea into him!
