I’m not sure what you are referring to, but...
I may very well be one of those “lesser evil” people you refer to.

If my choices are between a “bad” candidate and a “sort-of-bad” candidate,
then I will crawl over broken glass to vote for the “sort-of-bad” candidate.

If you are one of those:
“I’ll-just-stay-at-home”; or
“I’ll-just-leave-the-ballot-blank”; or
“I’ll-just-write-in-my-favorite”, or
“I’ll-just-vote-for-some-obscure-third-party”
type of people, then you are ceding your voice and
you are ceding your decision to someone else,
and you are removing yourself from the debate.

The “you ain’t conservative enough to deserve my vote”
train of thought is the only think that jimrob

and I have disagreed on over the years.

My vote is my voice, and I refuse to be silenced.
