You shouldn’t regret your vote. You voted your conscience. That is all that is required. You didn’t fail the electoral process, it failed you.
Shit, even that isn't required. There's no compulsory voting laws in the US.
Now if you want to actually make a difference...
You don’t use your conscience when voting?
If you want to make a difference? No, you don't use your conscience, at least not exclusively. You mainly use your brain.
Flabbergasted
Ok
If Hillary had been a better candidate, and adopted more of Bernie’s policies, she would have earned your vote. You didn’t fail her, she failed you. It’s literally her job as a candidate to sway your vote. She failed. It’s not the electorate’s fault when the candidate doesn’t court them. We need to stop blaming individuals for candidates deficiencies.
