As the title suggests, I voted for a left leaning third party candidate in a solidly blue state that Kamala Harris was going to win anyways whether I voted or not. I voted Democrat for all the other races. I did this because I hated Harris as a candidate and knew that my vote for someone else would not change her winning my state. If I lived in a state like Georgia for example, I would have voted for her. The reason I ask AITAH (mainly to my Democrat and left leaning folks reading this, but would also like to hear the perspective of folks who voted for Trump) is that I've been dumped or rejected by multiple girls now after they found out who I voted for, even after I explained to them my reasons and why my vote effectively would not have changed the election result. I personally believe that we were fucked either way if Trump or Kamala got in, and that Trump is leading us into a dictatorship/oligarchy with a possible civil war if he does not give up power at the end of his term. I also believe that Kamala would have gotten us into WW3 (just like Biden would have if they had had another 4 years). Anyways, am i missing something, does a depressed popular vote because of folks voting like I did make a huge difference? Thanks in advance. I just didn't want to vote for someone who could cause WW3, nor did I want to vote for Trump
