To not do so or to write in somebody else's name or to sit at home pouting because your favorite candidate didn't get the nomination.....
Is a vote for the batshit insane teahaaddist the the republicans will have running in the GE.
That same anti american, anti freedom candidate will be picking as many as 3 SCOTUS judges. If you claim to care about the poor, the working class, PoC, the environment etc and fail to vote for the democratic nominee..
You are a damn liar, period.
And you are just as destructive to this country as the oligarchy you claim to be against.

If you're so worried that Dems won't like your candidate, then don't vote for them in the primary.
