It's been suggested by supporters of my opponents that a vote for me is either pointless or amounts to a vote for another candidate, and that voting for anyone who isn't a Democrat or a Republican is immoral. I disagree.

Neither of my opponents represents our interests. Both support continuing the war and occupation of Iraq, even though 64 percent of Washingtonians agree with my call for an end to the war. Both of my opponents agree on issue after issue, whether it is support for the destructive and racist war on drugs, or support for a Patriot Act that shreds our civil liberties. . . .
