Until "none of the above" appears on the ballot, not voting is one way to say it. My wife comes from a communist country where voting was required and they had almost 100% turnout to vote for one of the party puppets. Only those opposed to the hypocracy would protest by not taking part in the bogus elections.
Some of us think that voting for one of the professional polititians put forth by the Democrat/Republican party is really no choice either. Voting for one of the smaller party candidates is sometimes an option, but it really makes little difference since the fix is in. Without influence to peddle for campaign contributions, third parties do not have much of a chance.
