I now think it's about 50/50 that Trump will win unless Hillary is indicted or unless more information emerges revealing her recklessness and irresponsibility as Secretary of State. Then Trump will sail into office. So, I'm going to do what I can consistent with my values to see that that doesn't happen. In other words, I'm going to vote for her and not waste my vote on Jill Stein or some other no-hoper.

John, good post and my signature is simply a one line comment on the situation (pickle) we are in. Vote for Hillary is affirming a bad choice. Vote for Trump is inviting disaster. But as you commented, voting for Trump is voting against Hillary, which I would not do. Not voting for either candidate will not hurt Hillary in CA. Or look at the bright side, the DNC may have purged all voters who supported Bernie giving us all an out and a great strategy for Hillary.
