“The race for the White House is too close for comfort,” write parties from around Europe, calling on Stein to throw her support behind Democrat Kamala Harris.
“Stein was reached for comment where she added: what the fuck do you think I’m running for, to actually be president? Ha! You’re telling me to drop out so I can’t do the thing I’m here to do which is help Trump win. You realize how dumb that is right?”
At press time, Stein remarked: “No, no seriously guys, we’re actually a serious party that has any business running for the highest office in the nation please believe me.”
Until ranked choice vote is established and the electoral college is abolished, there are no serious third parties.
The most serious third party imo is the Forward Party, only because they have one platform which is RCV, and they are quietly working in local elections only. They aren’t running any candidates in federal elections, although they had a big win in helping Alaska switch to RCV for their congressional race, which nudged out Sarah Palin.
With the forward party in conjunction with fairvote.org , they are laying the groundwork to create possibly the most revolutionary change to American politics ever.
But in order to do that, we need to have elections. Vote Harris.
But they brag about five (5) whole Green Party members getting elected to state legislatures since 1985. You know, that’s like one (1) whole member every eight (8) years, which is a lot considering there are only thousands of state legislature positions across the US (some of which have such little competition fucking Buck Cluck could probably get elected to a few dozen of them). So I think your point is moot tbh.

I would believe them if their party EVER got anyone elected, even to state congress, in even a third of the states.
I said it once, I’ll say it again-
