I tend to tell a lot of people about the LP and Barr in conversations -- people seem genuinely interested, but my sense is that when it comes down to it, they feel that they are "throwing away their votes" if they go third party. If more people would vote their conscience, instead of for the perceived 'winners,' we'd see some real change. Keep on with the great work you're doing! Good for you! Every bit counts.
