They haven't been viable options in quite some time. Because money is such a big part of politics here, the independents don't do well as they're poorly funded compared to the Republican and Democratic parties. A lot of people view voting independent as essentially throwing away your vote.

True, however many people here view voting for either party as voting for a lesser of two evils. In my case personally, Republicans spout some batshit crazy stuff, while Democrats are far more moderate and generally invest in social programs (an important issue for me). Therefore it's hard not to vote Democrat because I don't want a Republican victory.
It's a frustrating dilemma. |

The frustrating dilemma is voting blue in a state that always ends up going red and vice versa. The only time you feel like your vote might matter is if you live in a swing state.
