  • It’s amazing how the spoiler effect propaganda from the DNC gets eaten up so easily by voters when a better system of rank choice voting would prevent the thing issue completely.

    If the Democrats actually ran on these issues you stated seriously and were not so spinless they wouldn’t have to try to fight third party candidates from running in court to push subpar empty suit politicians through the finish line.

    Even in their own party, centrist candidate Dean Phillips tried to run against Biden and he had a media blackout and was actively fighting the DNC while the power at be pushed Joe “just a stutter” Biden.

    If Jill Stein is such a threat maybe don’t push the 81 year old incumbent on your base and with no primary to stress test his viability. Then when his brain shorts out during a debate and he drops THEY STILL don’t primary Kamala who’s 2020 run was absolutely destroyed the second people started listening to her word salad no answer bullshit get called out by Tulsi Gabard’s grifter ass.






  • Without looking at any statistics or polling, I think the spoiler effect is not as prominent and is over stated for one reason.

    If I’m going out of my way to not vote for the Democrats or Republicans and voting third party that would mean that I dislike my options so much that I’m giving a fuck you to the two party system.

    What people can gather from this is if you said there was only two options I would just sit out and therefore it wasn’t going to affect either candidate regardless.

    I’m open to be convinced otherwise but I think candidates blaming spoilers should look at the electoral college and themselves when every 4 years they are ready to blame single digit candidates for their losses.
