Our Presidential Election has become a sad joke. Large numbers of voters dislike, for good reason, the major party nominees. The Democratic Party nominee Hillary Clinton promises more of the failed Obama Administration with more corruption, if that is even possible. The GOP nominee reality TV star Donald Trump lacks the knowledge and temperament and has allowed a dark underbelly of our political discourse some undeserved light. I refuse to accept the lesser of two evils. I won’t vote for one and feel justified because the other is so bad. I have decided that I will show my displeasure by voting for conservative 3rd party candidate Evan McMullin. He is a former CIA operative and businessman and shares many of my values. I can be proud to vote for Evan McMullin. Some will say I am wasting my vote. Realistically, that may be true. Let’s be honest. Hillary will likely win Minnesota and the entire election anyway. Trump has run his mouth right out of contention. So I will use this opportunity to take a stand for better candidates in the future. Come along with me and vote for Evan McMullin for President. It’s never too late to do the right thing.
