    She’s not an option given the current state of the democratic system used in the country.

    The only way it works is if people banded together and changed the system, then a 3rd party system becomes viable.

        If you think that’s how elections currently work in the United States, nothing I can say will help you.

        For a 3rd party candidate to be viable, there would need to be enormous system changes or a very successful write in campaign.

        I would love for other candidates to be an option, but that’s currently not the case.

        By all means agitate for a better voting system. But until you have something other than FPP voting third party will do the opposite of what you want. This is a well known paradox of FPP, it has been well studied

          Im voting for a better voting system. Jill also has ranked choice voting as a campaign platform. I think you’ll have a better chance trying to convince Trump supporters to join Zionist Biden’s campaign than me, and with much better returns on your goal of not electing Trump.
