Correct but that was not a moral decision. The moral decision there is to abstain or to write in.

But we live in a FPTP voting system which essentially only allows two viable candidates. So someone can choose to make the moral decision (abstain or write in) or the make a non-moral decision that's forced upon them because of a system they did not choose. Sound similar?

You're assuming morality is binary when it is not.

No, I am not. But in this case, I can confidently say supporting evil of any sort (even if it is a lesser evil) is not a moral choice.

Is supporting the lesser of two evils an ethical choice - probs

Is supporting the lesser of two evils a practical choice. - Oh yah.

Is supporting the lesser of two evils a moral choice - supporting evil by definition is not moral.
