The reason third parties don’t succeed is because they are often vanity projects with little work done in the “off-season.” For example, the Green Party: sucks thousands of votes away during presidential elections, but is yet to have elected a single person to the House of Representatives.

If you’re squeamish about supporting an individual candidate, at least get involved in voter protection efforts.
