Uncommitted movement declines to endorse Harris, but encourages against Trump, third-party votes

"We urge Uncommitted voters to register anti-Trump votes," the group said.

The Uncommitted movement, the pro-Palestinian group critical of the Biden administration's handling of the war in Gaza, announced Thursday that it will not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris, but also does not recommend a third-party vote in November.

The group made the announcement as Harris campaigns Thursday in Michigan, home to sizable Arab American and Muslim populations that could hold outsized sway this year in the crucial swing state. The movement was founded to push voters to vote "uncommitted" on primary ballots rather than punch a ticket for Biden to register their discontent with his tight support for Israel amid the bloody war in Gaza.

… Still, the group added that it "opposes a Donald Trump presidency, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killing in Gaza while intensifying the suppression of anti-war organizing" and "is not recommending a third-party vote in the Presidential election, especially as third party votes in key swing states could help inadvertently deliver a Trump presidency given our country's broken electoral college system."

"We urge Uncommitted voters to register anti-Trump votes and vote up and down the ballot. Our focus remains on building a broad anti-war coalition both inside and outside the Democratic Party," the group said.

Glad to see some people come to their senses. We cannot be divided and hand Trump a victory.

3. am I understanding this?

they won't endorse her on principle, but they're acknowledging that this election is a binary choice for the survival of democracy, so as a way to vote against tcfsf, people should vote for Kamala?

I really hope i read that right; I think i did. I wonder how many voters they represent. it would be good to get a notice like this from the Green Party or any others that stand a chance of throwing the election to tcfsf.

hoping for a landslide so big that there can be no credible argument about the outcome.

4. That's my read

They won’t endorse Harris. But they are saying don’t vote Trump or third party, but do vote...for Harris because she’s the best option.
