Friends don't let Friends Vote 3rd Party. It just ensures the orange menace gets re-elected. No 3rd party candidate has ever received a SINGLE electoral vote. Zero. #NoThirdPartyVotes

Adding this clarification. Zero votes in recent history. JeffCO correctly pointed out that George Wallace received 48 electoral votes in 1968. Jeff, thanks for that!

Jeff, you're absolutely right - I'll clarify my Spout. That was before my time.

No worries, lot of olds here, heh. Your point stands about third party voting though. A genuine third party effort starts at the local level. These fakes never do.

As an aside, Ross Perot in '92 arguably enabled Bill Clinton's victory, though he did not actually win any electoral votes.

I really do try and back up any claims I make so I appreciate when someone points out if I've missed something. :-)

I remember Ross Perot - odd little guy worth a ton of oil $.
