with Jill Stein now running for President...

[Recycle_Guru]

RFK Jr. running as independent
Cornell West running as...what?

Joe Manchin or other possibly running as No Labels..

what does this shot show of a 2024 election look like?

[vlyons]

1. not much. A complete waste of time.

nt

[LakeArenal]

2. Looks like Biden wins.

[sakabatou]

3. They certainly won't take the seat

However, they could splinter the votes.

[Traildogbob]

4. Stein again.

What has her Green Party been up to saving the planet of late? The only green about her is Putin’s cash.

[leftstreet]

5. RFKjr is the only one who'll prevail, but he'll take Trump votes

He's wacky, but watching him develop his campaign he knows he'll get GOPers away from Trump

[Recycle_Guru]

7. this is my hope--RFK Jr more than cancels out fringes

so Biden is assured bigger victory.
Key is everyone vote, get friends to vote and explain how every vote not for Biden is a vote for Trump and am end to our 250 year old democracy.

11. Almost enough to get me to send him money to help that cause

[W_HAMILTON]

6. With this and the Manchin news...

...did the Republican/Russian checks finally clear the bank today?

[Recycle_Guru]

9. yeah--interesting timing

[Ocelot II]

8. Now, nothing. She'll enlist the usual suspects, probably the likes of

Glenn Greenwald, Tulsi Gabbard and Briahna Gray, pick up a few rubles from Vlad and fade back into obscurity as usual.

[SocialDemocrat61]

10. This Jill Stein?

[Recycle_Guru]

12. yep--hope everyone is clear eyed and Susan Sarandon disavows her

31. She had plenty of support here, including donations, for her fake recount in 2016

[SocialDemocrat61]

32. That's a shame

[getagrip_already]

13. Yang is still polluting my email even though i keep unsubscribing....

Pos s-bag. He will be a third party dirtbsg slso no doubt.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

33. Report it as spam

At least then it's not cluttering your primary inbox.

[revmclaren]

14. Going through DUs 2016 archives.

Wow.

The pure disinformation I'm seeing.

It's going to get rough here. You'll understand if you revisit it.

Buckle up democrats.

[Recycle_Guru]

16. totally expecting chaos next year.

[yardwork]

17. I hope not. That was horrible.

[Johonny]

15. Social influencers unite. Form of a grifter

Honestly Trump showed how much money can be made running for office, no surprise more people trying to cash that ticket.

[BigmanPigman]

18. Stein and RFK jr will take votes away from tRump.

Good

[kwolf68]

19. Stein?

So someone will turn down Trump to vote for the Green Party? I don't follow this.

[BigmanPigman]

20. RFK jr and Stein

are more similar than you realize, at least to those unhappy with the system. It used yo be that third party candidates would take votes from Dem candidates but since tRump things have changed. I wish I could find the clip that explained it on MSNBC 2 weeks ago. It made a lot of sense.

[kwolf68]

22. Fair enough

Magats won't switch and I do get the RFK appeal especially with his vax crap. But Stein, at least policy was, is left wing. I can't even see moderate or even disinterested Republicans going for her. We need a strong Libertarian candidate to get involved. With the Republicans lurching toward theocracy maybe that will siphon off voters. IT DID ME in 92 and 96 when I rejected the Republic Party for the Libertarians.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

34. Why?

Plenty of the bernbros voted for TFG, because they were too pure for Hillary.

[womanofthehills]

28. Unfortunately, not true according to this weeks polls

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/

With Kennedy & West counted in Morning Consult polls in Wisc, NC, Pa, Nevada, Georgia, Az - Trump is ahead. Only in Michigan is Biden one point ahead with Kennedy & West included.


Bloomberg has similar results

29. I don't put much stock in polls any more.

21. Fcking Putin calling out his troops

23. 2016 performance

This map shows the percentage of the popular vote Jill Stein earned in each county.
On Election Day, Stein finished in 4th with over 1,457,216 votes (more than the previous three Green tickets combined) and 1.07% of the popular vote. However, she finished three million votes under Gary Johnson as the Greens once again finished behind the Libertarian Party, though they did gain more votes than Independent candidate Evan McMullin and Constitution Party candidate Darrell Castle.[7]

At the state level, Stein exceeded 2% vote share in Hawaii (12,737, or 2.97%), Oregon (50,002, or 2.50%) and Vermont (6,758, or 2.14%).[35] She won her most votes in California (278,657, or 1.96%). In 22 other states, she crossed 1% of the vote. Although she did not win any counties or congressional districts, Stein placed third in 23 counties and 18 congressional districts nationally.[35] The Stein-Baraka ticket received their highest percentage of the vote in Sioux County, North Dakota (10.39%), while also surpassing five percent in Humboldt County and Mendocino County, California.[35]

24. So what if Stein is running?

A Libertarian will run and get 3 times the votes or more from the Republican. About 5 people are going to vote for Cornell West. RFK supposedly pulls more votes from Trump. How many Biden voters are saying, “I like Biden on the environment and stance on workers, but I wish he was an anti-vax conspiracy nut”? Not sure what to make of no labels but are we sure they will even run anyone? I’m not sure whoever they run will have much Joe-mentum. (Lieberman not Biden)

26. The only thing a third party will do is be a spoiler, and they know it, which means they

want trump to win, regardless what their lying mouths say.

One thing I am quite sure you will see, because we saw it in 2016, Democracy Now, and MSM outlets pushing their candidacies.

Anyone one who votes for a third party candidate is voting for Trump, no matter what their lying asses say.

[marble falls]

27. A Joe Biden sunami-like landslide victory with a down-ticket flood of Democratic office victors.
