The Montana Republican Party paid for the Greens to gather signatures in 2020 to help them try to spoil Dem votes, so this is nothing new for Montana. The republicans there are known for funding spoiler candidates and those candidates are just happy to be getting money at all.
And Libertarians actually take votes away from Trump. Libertarians like Sid Daoud. Which this article is about.
From this article:
“There is a perception, and there is a reason for it, that the Libertarian poses a big threat to the Republican,” Lee Banville, a political analyst and director of the University of Montana School of Journalism, said last week.
Kinda funny to see a self-proclaimed socialist posting libertarian content. Trying to build some street cred to defuse the trolling claims perhaps? “Oh I’m a socialist, but really it’s all the third parties I care most about!”
Maybe just pick a lane.
Wait… so you believe in spoiler candidates, but not that Jill Stein is a spoiler?
Because you fight pretty hard when anyone calls Stein a spoiler siphoning votes from the Democratic party.
The very idea of a “spoiler” is a tool used by those clinging to the duopoly to scare people into submission, to keep us from voting our conscience.
You are correct that I don’t buy into that narrative, but in this community, where the term is tossed around like a weapon, I use the vernacular to communicate effectively.
Jill Stein isn’t a spoiler—she’s a voice for the people, challenging a corrupt system that fears true democracy. And she has my vote.
Such a long article that I didn’t finish it. Be concise when writing. This seemed like it was just trying to hit a wordcount target.
