party and votes that leave Trump and go to Democrats could give Republicans, in districts the America Party does run in, the win. So far it is only planning on running in swing districts. Trump has a base of 37%. Another 30% don't bother to vote. That leaves 33% left to be split by Musk and Democrats. Keep in mind in multiparty Canadian parliamentary elections (based on the winning number of electoral ridings) the person who gets over 35% of the vote usually win. It is a scam Musk/Trump are pulling.
