The problem here is having only two choices.

Where I'm from we have coalition governments. It's very rare for one party to have a majority. So they have to argue for months and come to some kind of agreement with other parties. The good thing is that everyone can vote for what they really want. There's not really any 'lost votes'. The bad thing is that the coalition forming process is messy and slow and the result is much watered down. But I'd much rather have this than a two party system.

If I had been a US citizen I'd have voted for Harris though.

Yeah, our system is fucked. Unfortunately, we play with the cards we have, not the cards we want.
