well i know that if it was me voting

i'd put my x against the candidate from the minor parties that best reflected the one policy i felt most strongly about.

it's no suprise that once the Green Party actually started getting proper support the three main parties all saw that they needed to try and win the moderate greens over to their party

that'd be my tactic
