I would assume that every state has different rules. But in Wisconsin we do not have to count any write in names unless they are actually registered as write in candidates. So a disgruntled voter's "protest vote" has little impact. Not only is that person not going to win by but since there is no tally or reporting of write in votes - the candidate you are "sending the message" to will never even know.
