There's lots of potential vote splitting.

On the flip side, there is no guarantee that Aissa will get his 23.68% this time. He got all the anti-LRT votes last time; this time, the LRT is a done deal and he will have to use other issues to convince voters (and get the vote out).

But if you don't want to see Aissa elected, this is your opportunity to support another candidate, whether by volunteering, donating, or convincing other voters. I certainly plan to do so.

Yes, but because we don't have a ranked ballot, and because most of the other candidates seem fairly similar, if I pick the wrong candidate to back, my advocacy could in fact increase the chances of Aissa winning.
