A new poll suggests that Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein is drawing more voters from former President Donald Trump than from Vice President Kamala Harris.
According to a Noble Predictive Insights survey released last week, Harris holds a narrow lead over Trump in a hypothetical three-way race. With Stein on the ballot, Harris’ lead expands, pointing to a potential spoiler effect similar to what many Democrats blamed Stein for doing to Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
For Trump, the emergence of Stein as a potential spoiler may be a critical factor in battleground states, where even a small shift in votes could determine the outcome. For Harris, Stein’s candidacy could paradoxically provide an unexpected advantage, drawing votes from Trump and narrowing his pathway to victory.
Democracy enjoyers understand that this version of democracy doesn’t care about third parties 🤷♂️ vote for the lesser evil and campaign locally for vote reform
doesn’t sound like very much of a democracy, does it?
It’s reality. Campaign for vote reform.
I’m not voting for the “lesser evil” when the “lesser evil” commits a genocide. There is no dilemma when we are counting genocides. When do you start realising that both are serving the 1% interests? When does this end - if the dems commit 3 genocides and the republicans 4? If the dems commit 10 and the republicans 11? The red line is long crossed.
Don’t tell us what to do lmfao.
Congrats, your actions likely lead to even more Palestinian deaths. Yay, you “took a stand.” The extra dead will be so thankful.
It’s so funny that you think the democrats aren’t the genocidal maniacs that have unconditionally supported and armed Israel. It doesn’t get much worse than this, Israel has got literally everything it has asked for lmao. The problem is you thinking they are in any way holding back, but go off. As Joe said, no president has supported Israel as much as I did.
Tell us how not so evil the democrats, which are funded by the military industrial complex more than the republicans, are. Tell us how they work for our interests, not the oligarchs, please.
I’ve said this a million times, if the two candidates were Hitler and Hitler again, but he funded a little bit more the healthcare system who would you vote for? None is the answer. When the dilemma consists of ideologies and political/social trajectories that are 100% opposite to your ideal ones, the lesser evil doesn’t exist.
Don’t blame the dead on the people who have done more than the 99% for the cause, I can’t take you seriously that way. You can blame the oligarchs and the fascists/liberals who don’t care.

Yes, they’re all oligarchs. Stein included - her net worth is nearly 10x Harris’s and Walz’s combined, you fucking dolt. You’re not moving the needle, you’re just helping a worse candidate gain office.
Yes, I would fucking vote for Healthcare Hitler. I don’t care that you feel bad while doing it, i care about what the potential outcomes are. You get hitler either way, why would you not make a choice that leads to a better future?
You’re so concerned with your own feelings that you’re actively trying to make everyone’s lives worse just so you don’t feel bad. The only positive that your vanity vote provides anyone is that your fragile feelings are protected.
sorry, I don’t vote for hitlers :/ if Harris wanted me to vote for her this election, she could’ve run on not being Hitler (as 101,000 uncommitted voters in Michigan, a very important swing state, asked her to), but she didn’t, so I won’t. I really hope her strategy of courting all 6 moderate republicans in the country at the expense of anyone to the left of the party works out, but if 2016 is anything to go off of, it won’t.

Democrat Senators are funded more by the military than the republican ones, and that’s only the above the table money. And before you say I’m cherry picking, I know I am. I’m not trying to argue that republicans are better, they are not. I’m just giving perspective on how little they differ.
I don’t care if Stein is an oligarch, she very well could be, but I never advocated for her. In only advocate for not voting the two systemic, imperial, neoliberal parties. Also I never talked about Harris or Trump’s personal wealth. Having a couple millions in the bank doesn’t make you an oligarch. Oligarchs are the actually super rich people that these parties necessarily serve, like I’ve explained. It has to do with their actions and their party’s ties and actions. That’s not a serious argument. But I don’t know about Stein’s history and what she has done. If you think she checks the boxes above, don’t vote for her either. I’m not deifying anyone.
As for the last part, which is the actually important one, no matter how much you try to make it about feelings and repeat it, you unfortunately will never make anyone believe this. If I thought it would help Palestinians to vote for Harris, my feelings would tell me to vote for her, it’s as simple as that. But you are so deeply fried in the oligarchy propaganda that you can’t understand what I already pointed out. That you blatantly assume that the democrats made any non-negligible concession on that matter that the republicans wouldn’t and so we should vote for them. This is 100% wrong.
I am not complicit with this oligarchy system we are living in, not only in regards to the genocide. So I’m not voting for them, I am not giving my approval. They can’t produce any meaningful change, they are both far right neoliberal parties.
And if you want to vote for Hitler, I don’t really care, I am assuming you say this now because it strengthens your argument, but the difference would be so negligible (as is now) that the fact that there is one more vote on them signifying approval has to be more detrimental than the bad Hitler coming to power. There are limits to the harm the lesser evil is allowed to cause, and you willing to vote for Hitler doesn’t change that.
