Sorry, to be clear, you're saying that potential Trump voters would vote for Stein to protest our relationship with Israel?

If all third-party candidates had to vote for one of the two main candidates, I think nearly all of the Green Party votes would go to the Democrat, while the Libertarian votes would be much more of a split.

Was there actually news indicating that preppers, as a group, were more likely to be against masking than for it?

I wouldn't be too surprised, but I haven't actually seen any evidence to this effect.

It's incorrect. Look at the NYT. The difference is that Politico's numbers weren't updated after the final votes were counted.

See how that says "99.8% reporting"? If you look at the NYT, it shows the results after counting 100% of the votes, and it matches what's in the picture.

The Green Party is far more left-wing than the Libertarian Party is right-wing.

Where are you getting those numbers? The ones in the photo match NYT and Wikipedia.

Why would someone who agrees with the Green Party platform prefer Republicans to Democrats? I'm sure such people exist, but I expect they're a tiny fraction of Green Party voters.

Get an extension cord?

...sure. Yes. If you own a song, you can listen however many times you want, simultaneously or not.

But streaming services are simply a different value proposition. Listening to an mp3 means either buying all the music you listen to or pirating; it also means having the music stored on your listening device in advance, or streaming from a personal media server. I listen to a lot of music that I haven't heard before and don't know if I'll actually like; I also listen on my phone a fair amount and have a limited amount of storage space for music. For that use-case, streaming is preferable (to me).

Maybe, but how is that different from needing to pay for two separate copies of anything else if two people are using them at the same time in different places?

I'm not a fan of how little the major streaming services (except Tidal) pay artists, but they do all offer bundle packages. Spotify's pricing is $12 for an individual, $17 for two people, and $20 for a family of up to 6. So it's only $5 more than the base cost if two people stream simultaneously.

That's just the name of the device. Unless you're saying that smart speakers, or whatever you want to call them, are inherently not wholesome, which has some merit.
