    Your assuming lesser evil stays the same. If they move lock step with the greater evil though then guess what?

      Then a new party will form. Again, if the votes are not split 50:50 and it’s pretty much only on the lesser evil, then a good alternative party can easily grab the votes of the frustrated citizens without risking “splitting the vote and letting greater evil win”

        What are you talking about? This is not a hypothetical. That’s what already happened. And a new party didn’t form. Because we were kept being told to vote for the lesser of two evils.
