In reply to the discussion: Axelrod warns Cornel West bid could tip election to Trump [View all]Hekate
(100,133 posts)10. The people who pay for the Greens to run are very skilled at surgically slicing marginal areas...
to bring about the desired result for the GOP. The Greens take money from the GOP and from Russia. The Greens take votes from Democrats.
Both Al Gore and Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. They very narrowly lost in a small number of crucial areas which threw those states votes to the GOP in the Electoral College.
I do not expect to see Cornell West campaigning much in California, except maybe a few appearances at colleges. I do expect he will spend time in places Hillary lost to Jill Stein by very small numbers in each district.
They are good at this. I actually do worry about it.
