Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

DNC by the numbers 2020

Georgia won by 11k votes - has 120k Muslims

Arizona won by 10k votes - has 109k Muslims

Wisconsin won by 20k votes - has 68k Muslims

Pennsylvania won by 80k votes - has 150k Muslims

Michigan won by 150k votes - has 241k Muslims

Again you can't math, AND you aren't even aware of what states Stein is on ballot for, then you're assuming the entire Muslim population is voting.

The national polling is between Trump and Harris. Harris has the edge. 1% of any population isn't going to affect that.

Even if only half the Muslim vote that voted for Biden in 2020 votes for a third party in those swing states, Harris will lose.

No, because your poll already said 30% of that same number is voting Harris, and Trump is only 10% because he is so disliked. Stein isn't on the ballot in any of the deciding swing states, so again...does not matter. The Muslim population is not large enough to matter.

Brought to you by the party that claims that they're going to protect democracy, so we need to vote for them. The best they can do is sue to keep threats to their power off of the ballot.

Wow, you might want to tell her Campaign that then: https://www.jillstein2024ballotaccess.com/

AGAIN. MATH.

Regardless of Stein. Regardless of the Muslim 1%. Regardless of any of the other bullshit you keep trying to bring up, the concentration in numbers DOES NOT MATTER.

The problem with people who are cocky and trying to influence something they have zero power to influence is that they are so fucking sure of themselves that they can't be wrong.

You are wrong.

I cant help it if you cant read maps. The dark solid green is where Jill And other Green Party members are on the ballot. The lighter green is where only Jill is on the ballot.
