It’s a fine take and I mean, I’d love to have the option to vote for that alternative, but realistically right now, none of us do. No matter which side of the aisle you’re on, if you abandon the side you’d normally vote for to vote third party, you’re only helping your own personal worst case scenario.
Really, all of these third party… parties should be focusing more on pushing for an alternate voting system. I know they say we should get away from two-party politics, but I rarely see any actual action taken to try and accomplish that. Ranked-choice was on the ballot 4 years ago in MA, but didn’t pass, and if these third parties had poured their campaign budget into getting it passed, they’d be getting my vote in November. As it stands, they won’t be. Their policies, frankly, don’t matter, because we can’t vote for them, as much as we’d like to, without voting against our own self-interests and really, those of the entire country.
I honestly love this; they’re basically saying that they think her talking points were good enough that she couldn’t have been doing it off the cuff. Great endorsement for Harris.
