    I live in a different state now, so now I get to vote for her! Which is also why I started a community, x.com, and Mastadon accounts for the party. Now I can be much more involved. And it’s awesome! :)

      Well, hey, props from moving from a dead end candidate to an even deader end candidate I guess.

      When 1% of the vote is just too mainstream! LOL.

        If they continue their average of 79.2 submissions to Lemmy a day their submissions will surpass the 6,791 votes that Alyson Kennedy got for running as 2020 presidential candidate for the Socialist Workers Party (United States) on November 2, 2024!

            Yeah, you post more stuff like every eighteen minutes.

            Why do you save some time and let me know when you don’t post some propaganda?

          Despite the fact that voting for them makes it easier for the person LEAST aligned with your values.

          One person can beat Trump, they aren’t a fringe candidate.

          Fortunately, none of the states where she’s on the ballot are going to be even close.

          Louisiana (8) - Trump (2020 - 58/39 Trump)
          Minnesota (10) - Harris (52/45 Biden)
          New Jersey (14) - Harris (57/41 Biden)
          Tennessee (11) - Trump (60/37 Trump)
          Vermont (3, as Independent) - Harris (66/30 Biden)
          Washington (12) - Harris (57/38 Biden)

            The idea that only one candidate can beat Trump assumes the current two-party system is unchangeable and doesn’t give people any room to voice dissent.

            Instead of falling into the trap of lesser-evil voting, I think that supporting third-party candidates can pressure the major parties to adopt more progressive platforms or even pave the way for alternative political voices to gain real traction over time.

            Dismissing third-party votes as wasted just reinforces the limited choices we’re stuck with.

            I refuse to support the Duopoly, and honestly, the hostility and bullying I’ve received on Lemmy only strengthens my resolve NOT to vote Democrat.
