    Right?! How about instead of “balancing” the ticket for bigots on the right, we balance it for progressives on the left?!

    Oh but the left never votes and the center right always does… Yeah, because the center right always has at least 2 candidates to choose from while the left has none.

      Believe me, I agree with you; I wish I had a true Progressive to vote for this November! By the way, we’re not really balancing the ticket for right-wingers, it’s more courting undecided voters, whether they be left, center, or right. Like it or not, the swing states will decide this election. And we can’t let Donald Trump and Project 2025 win, there’s too much at stake.

      Please vote, volunteer, and donate for Kamala Harris. When she’s president, turn that attention to getting progressives elected. Showing the American people an improvement in their lives is the only way to avoid these narrow 50/50 splits between good and bad candidates as we reform and improve things…

        I don’t believe there are that many undecided voters in the center… The “undecided” voters are all on the far left… And they’re deciding whether to show up, or not show up at all. Going after them by showing that the Dems will actually be fighting for them (against the oligarchy) is the smart move. The center is already decided.

        However, I am open to the possibility that what’s true on a national level might not necessarily be true in the swing states… So if anyone has any studies comparing the center undecided with the left undecided in the swing states, I’d love to see it
