    and why I will vote for Johnson

Even though you know he has absolutely zero chance of winning?

I'd much rather throw away my vote and absolve myself than be behind Clinton or Trump.

As well, if Johnson wins, or denies majority delegates, I get to vote for the person who caused real election reform in the US when the house puts trump into office.

Except from a moral standpoint, that's not how it works IMO.

This is so wildly improbable that it's really not worthy of consideration.
