I am writing in response to Mr. Seamans’ question, “Please tell me what to do.”

I agree that this is an election like none other in that so many of us have difficulty with both candidates.

Don’t stress about the candidate FOR whom you are voting; think about the candidate you most want to vote AGAINST. I feel strongly that it is most important to vote against Donald Trump. Voting for a third-party candidate, a write-in or staying home is a wasted vote and will only split the vote against Trump, giving him a better chance of winning and you the blame for his doing so

The only way to effectively defeat Trump is to vote for the Democratic Party candidate.
