What to do with the D Senate candidate

The only chance we have of not getting corrupt out of touch billionaire Pete Ricketts is Independent Candidate Dan Osborn. There is a Democrat on the ballot but it’s just someone put on there by Pete Ricketts to split the vote. Is there a certain way to vote in this situation? Leave it blank? Write in Dan?

Burbank has said that she would drop out if she won the nomination and support Osborn because she wants to give him a “fair shot against Ricketts.”
