The Dangerous Illusion of a Presidential Third Party in 2024 - eviltoast

Really you don’t need to read more than one chart:

If you vote for anyone other than Harris, you’re voting for Trump:

      I did read the article.

      It doesn’t make a convincing case that a third party vote is the same as a trump vote. That’s why I asked you to explain how you came to that conclusion.

      The article also claims third parties can’t possibly expect to get any electoral votes but then says if they did then it could create a situation where the house chooses the president.

      If dems want third party voters to support them and are in danger of losing for want of third party voters, dems can simply pick up platforms and policies that third party voters want.

          Before you asked about the article, I asked how third party votes are the same as trump votes. I explained that the votes aren’t counted for trump so they can’t be the same and that they are counted so they’re not thrown away.

          Instead of asking incredulously if I’d read the posted article, why not just engage with what I’m saying?
