That sounds ridiculous.

I also don't live in the US, but in my country we are encouraged to not vote or "vote blank" if we don't agree with any of the parties. It's a way of expressing your displeasure with all of the parties up for election.

In the USA, there are serious proposals for adding "none of the above" to each contest. Some even suggest if "none of the above" wins, there's a do-over with all new candidates.

Years ago, we had a local race for judge where both candidates were revealed to be despicable (during their campaign). A do-over would have been great.
