The vote is only three weeks away, what is the plan for changing everyone else’s mind in time?
Early voting is an option in many places too!
Voting early is usually less stressful, and you can schedule it easier (because election day isn't a national holiday for some reason). Look up the dates early voting is running in your county, read up on what polling stations you can vote early at, and make a plan!
As far as changing minds though... yeah, everyone is pretty much locked in at this point. I just hope people in the US cast a ballot even if they don't plan on voting for the president. There are so many downballot positions for local offices that one's vote can have a huge impact on.
I think if people are resigned to not pick between outright vs lite genocide (understandably), the best thing they can do is research their local elections, make a list on who they plan on choosing for each office, and make the decision on the president (including the choice to do a write-in or leave it blank) when they get to the ballot box.
