Stein's campaign says it wants nothing to do with Duke, the former American Nazi Party member
Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, disavowed the endorsement and called Duke "trash."
That is how it is done. Unlike Harris. Who went on a parade with Liz Cheney, and praised Dick Cheney for his work after they endorsed her.
You do know that you need the other party’s voters to jump ship to win the election, right?
What? That's never been the case in any election. The parties only get candidates to ~40% or so. And turnout is far more impactful than people crossing party lines.
Even under the (completely unreal) philosophy that turnout is fixed and that every single voter has a default party, that still wouldn't mean you need the other party's voters. One of the parties will have >50%.
You can also appeal to the disaffected Leftists jumping ship, or the non-voters. You don't need to campaign to the right of your predecessor.
So why did Jill Stein reject David Duke's endorsement?
Dems already have the other party's candidate.
Thank you!!
