What a peculiar mentality. I've never felt like I was "winning" when a candidate I voted for did well in the election. I just try to find the least worst option and hope they don't screw things up too badly. And I have actual choices!
To me and most adults who have ascended beyond a tribal mentality, elections are not about "winning" but about trying to get competent people into positions of lawmaking so that beneficial policies are effected.
