Given Meghan's issue of choice, it seems rational that she might want to vote against the person who nominated someone the the Supreme Court who could not define the term "woman".
I disagree in an American political context (although sheтАЩs Canadian, so it doesnтАЩt matter) - given the winner-take-all nature of our voting system and the fact that unless third parties suddenly become as competitive as the other two parties they serve as spoilers, supporting one candidate over another makes you a supporter IMO. You are allowed to disagree with your preferred presidential candidate and still be a supporter.
The very nature of the American system means people are forced to vote for someone they don't support in order to keep out someone they consider more dangerous.
I think there's a difference between actually supporting a political figure and saying that they're the lesser of two evils.

What could possibly be the difference between 'voting for' and 'supporting'?
Whether most of the things you say about a person are good or bad. Whether you'd vote for them instead of someone you like.
