What's really telling is that Democratic Party supporters seem to think that the Green Party is the only third party to exist, and that splitting the vote only affects them, when the right-wing parties and independent candidates get many, many more votes.

Weird how the Greens who get less votes than the Libertarians in every election somehow throw the vote to Republicans, when the Libertarians:

  • Are in all 50 states, the greens often are in just over half
  • More voters are registered Libertarian than any other third party since the 1980s
  • More people voted for Libertarian than Green in 2000, 2016, and 2024
  • Yet somehow Green voters are blamed in all of these despite if every Green voter was given to Democrats they wouldn't have won, but Libertarian votes would have
  • And you never see Democrats getting mad at the serious third party that people actually vote for in swing states, but they have taken ideas from the Green party like the Green New Deal
