Fun fact: for a third party candidate to qualify for ballot access in New York, they need to get 45,000 signatures (which none managed to achieve this election cycle). That means that in a state of 20 million people, no third party candidate could earn the support of just 0.225% of the population… Even Kanye got a larger percentage of the vote than that in some states!
And yet there are still people in this community trying to convince us that these candidate are running in good faith, when clearly no one actually wants them. Hmm…
Well apparently some people want them, or the Democrats wouldn’t be so made about them. :)
Agreed, a number can be smaller that 45k but still bigger than zero. Hence why she’s campaigning as a write-in candidate.
That’s exactly right, unfortunately the third party candidate I wanted to support (Jill Stein) wasn’t on the ballot in my state because of aggressive (and probably illegal) litigation by the Democrats. I voted for Donald Trump since ensuring that Democrats don’t win is the most important thing we can do to stop the genocide in Palestine right now.
Keep up the good fight, we can’t let corporate Democrats control our future.

You expect the other guy to do better? The same guy who said he’d let Israel have their way with Gaza? As per https://www.vox.com/politics/353037/trump-gaza-israel-protests-biden-election-2024 ?
How do you figure that this is better?
