Read the article. Maybe half or more are voting third party, they hate trump and kamala.

The other, from one of the interviews, the last four years of Democrat led politics has literally been the worst in their lives for both themselves living in america, and for their friends and families who live in the middle east.

Assuming a democrat leader is best for everyone is part of the problem. There are groups of people who suffer under Democrat leadership, and ignoring them is just frustrating them.

I was and I voted for Kerry in 2004 because of it. It is much worse now though!

Politics is all edges since our government got completely taken over by bribes from war criminals, so we're all walking around with some small cuts lately.

And they should know that the Electoral College means that this only helps Trump, who in 2015 wanted Muslims in America to wear "Special IDs"
