In most elections in America, spoiled ballots aren't even counted. They
serve no protestorial purpose, because no-one ever sees that the ballot
was spoiled. Fight the lack of choice by voting for one of the non-duopoly
candidates (there are several on the ballot in most states, from the
Constitutionalists to the Socialists). Fight the lack of choice by
actively getting involved in voting-method reform organisations -- a
fairer voting method breaks a duopoly in single digits of terms.
