I've gone both ways on this. If the "lesser of two evils" is not too horrible I've voted for that person. But I've more frequently been fed up with both main party candidates and voted for someone else.
My hope in voting for an alternative candidate that really has no chance of winning is that it might send a signal to both main parties that some people don't like either one of them. I'm not sure that message sinks given the relatively low number of other people who might also do that. I'm sort of highly fed up with politics.
