I keep getting texts from Democrats to vote for Biden and apparently the great state of Texas is a battleground state or something. Should I vote PSL or will fascists kick in my door a couple years from now? Howie Hawkins seems good, can the Greens hit 5% and does that actually matter?
I haven't followed any of this since Bernie lost on Super Tuesday.
I don't think PSL is getting enough votes to force mainstream media to report on it, so I'm voting Green on the nationals.
Yeah that's probably smart. What happens if they hit 5% again?
They get 8-10 million dollars of public funding for their next campaign.
I don't think 5% is going to happen. I also think that the free coverage from politics-as-horse racing columnists is potentially worth more anyway.
If PSL got 5% that'd be neat because they'd turn around and spend the funds on something cooler than campaigning. But that's even less happening this election than the Greens getting it.
