This should be a major national scandal honestly. Like I don't think a major outlet lying should be a major national scandal every time but publishing this article at this time? With this omission?

You know, I may talk shit about the presidential election, but I've voted in every general I've been able to and will continue to do so, even if I vote third party. Telling folks to vote for NOTHING is a bad move, and honestly suspicious.

As of 1pm PT, the title of the piece now appears as "Why I Won't Vote," a smooth editorial move that resolves the contradiction.
