(annalex) I did not vote for Romney. In the past several elections I wrote in constitution Party and this time I wrote in Ron Paul.

(sitetest) Then you are 100% to blame for all the ill that befalls us as a result of the anti-Christ getting a second term.

Knock it off sitetest, and take a hard, sobering look at the voting percentages in each of the "blue" states. There was simply no way that Romney could have won any of them even if all of the third party votes had gone to him instead. The combined totals of Romney votes and third party votes never came close to 50% of the voting public in the blue states.

There is no parallel to the 1992 vote, wherein Perot siphoned off enough votes that Clinton received a majority but still failed to reach 50% of the popular vote. Third party votes didn't make Romney lose, they only made him lose by a larger percentage. Obama got more than 51% of the popular vote in every single one of the blue states.

For what it’s worth I did a write-in in California (blue) as well as in Missouri (red), albeit I admit it would have been more vexing had I lived in a battleground state.

I voted straight Republican otherwise. It is the presidential politics where the two-party system is killing us.
