Why support Candidate A over Candidate B?

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Having said that, voting to avoid an opposing candidate is not exactly uncommon.

Personally, my vote at the next Federal election will be to AVOID my vote going to the Liberal candidate, and I know a lot of progressive voters will be doing the same. It's certainly not the ideal, but it's just as legitimate.

But to vote for someone who you genuinely dislike, just because he's more likely to win... makes you a little bit of a coward...
