How many electoral votes did ole Ross get?
Since tankies thrive on open questions I will answer myself. 0 , H. Ross Perot got 0 electoral votes in his only full candidacy for president. That is the % chance that a third party candidate has in the U.S. For anyone not familiar with U.S. elections that wishes to chime in.
My point was that voting for a third party still makes your voice heard, regardless if your guy won or not. Even Bush jr had to acknowledge climate change, and the Biden administration is struggling with the border issue. An issue Republicans voted for... on a guy that lost. Their voice is still being heard, and represented even though their guy is running away from jail atm.
But since fascists like saying opposition to one party monopolies or duopolies is futile or the norm, I'll say, it's not. It's the way a democracy should work. Many parties ruling instead of just one or two, people having their voices heard (not just old people).
So, you're asking Democrats to make their voice heard and not vote Kamala. Who's gonna be the one to answer then?
Put any spin you want on it, a vote against Kamala is a vote for Trump. Now shush you insipid tankie.
A vote is a vote, and why would you vote for a candidate you think wouldnt represent your values or you?
Your calling me a tankie is no different than Trump calling Kamala a Marxist.
Wrong again, you belong to this movement of voter suppression tactics and you're showing that your anti- democratic arguments actually fall right in line with right wing vote suppression tactics . Keep using your shield of equivalency. I call it like I see it.
Feel free to check, I've been called y'all out since day one of the respectable Ms. Harris's candidacy
Can you show evidence of right wingers saying to vote for third party candidates? Do you call everyone who disagrees with you a tankie (im usually called a menace to society)? And its Mrs. Harris. I read Mrs. Harris' books and made up my mind that I don't like her as a candidate, she voiced concerning language, and shes backtracked on things like fracking and marijuana now.
Calling for evidence against a known felon isn't gonna get you anywhere in this part. Hello, who you talking to, a stinking liberal Democrat voter. I have faith in who knows whats right. The voter.
I'm actually confused to what you're trying to say here, I was asking you for evidence of republicans saying to vote for a third party candidate so you can support your claim that that's what one of their voter suppression tactics are. I've been saying this whole time that voters know whats right for them and should choose someone they believe in, not just because its the popular choice.
Explain to me how telling people to vote for a candidate they believe represent their values; is the same as abolishing voting by mail or other voter suppression tactics? Stop pivoting
Trump, say it, Trump.
