In elections where the outcome in your riding is a foregone conclusion, you can afford to vote for a third party to express support for that party and encourage them to continue growing. If you're in a coin-flip riding, even if you feel like you're choosing between poop or vomit, how could you not have even the slightest preference?
The only way that happens is if you're afraid to take accountability for your choice. You want to be able to blame everyone else for forcing you to eat a poop sandwich, rather than admitting you chose the poop because it's slightly better than vomit.
Even Homer voted for Kodos.
