You should ask your representatives about electoral reform so we can fix this mathematical flaw in our voting system. Then no one would have to cast a "harm reduction vote". They would be free to vote for someone they feel best represents them, safe in the knowledge their vote would still count against those they don't want in office.

First Past The post voting artificially limits the number of political parties to two. This allows the legacy political parties to run incredibly weak candidates since there is no competition in the electoral system.
