Democratic Plots to Kick the Green Party off State Ballots Cost Trump Arizona and Wisconsin
Big League Politics ^ | February 6, 2021 | Richard Moorehead

Posted on 02/07/2021 8:30:51 AM PST by CheshireTheCat

There were three critical swing states in which the Green Party appeared on the ballot in 2016 and didn’t appear in 2020. The states of Arizona, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania all removed the Green Party from the presidential election in 2020, with Democratic operatives using underhanded tactics to kick them off.

Labor activist Howie Hawkins was the Green Party’s 2020 presidential nominee.

In 2016, the Green Party nominee Jill Stein won more than 34,000 votes in Arizona. If a Green Party candidate had appeared with ballot access in the state in 2020, he or she would’ve been sure to win enough votes to erode Biden’s 10,500 vote margin of victory in the state and ensure Trump won.

The Arizona legislature shortened the time period in which smaller parties have the chance to collect signatures for ballot access in the advance of the election. This served to effectively disenfranchise the Green Party, which didn’t gather the more than 30,000 signatures it would need to secure ballot access. A Green Party activist described the move as an unfair attack on third parties.

The Green Party vote total in Wisconsin varied from over 30,000 in 2016 to 1,000 in 2020- without ballot access. Biden won Wisconsin by 20,000 votes, making it more than likely that Trump would’ve won Wisconsin if the Green Party was on the ballot....

Shenanigans involving third parties were just form of cheating in the overall big cheat.

Yes, there was widespread fraud, but making things difficult for the Green Party was just the Demonrats’ “insurance policy” part of the fraud.

I thought that Republicans controlled the Arizona Legislature.

This article was written for disinformation and deflection. Our election was stolen through computer fraud-and nothing else.

Just another piece of the “protect democracy” (i.e. protect the elites) project written up in that Time magazine article.

I'm sure it contributed, and that is why Madam Hillary Benghazi accused Jill Stein in 2016 of costing her the election, but the main culprit was VOTER FRAUD - mail in ballots, rigged voting machines and crooked poll workers.

You should read the Time magazine. Amazingly, the theft involved more of an orchestrated effort by Dems, establishment GOP, the MSM, and big tech. It is so brazen, they have no fear in actually writing up the article which brags about it. Of course, they think it was done to “protect our democracy” and “save the country”. I guess protect it from the actual people in this country.

In many was this is worse than computer fraud. It’s an orchestrated campaign where these groups colluded openly to shape and direct the outcome of the campaign.

Yep. The gaslighting now from DEmocrats and Never Trumpers is “we stole it legally.”

Yes, and I hope people on this forum who are advocating a third party see this and start to think, rather than react emotionally.

We need to take over the GOP, not render our votes invisible by forming a third party. Our system, for better or for worse, is set up for two parties, not a multiplicity (as in the parliamentary system) and we have to make sure our party is the strongest....and most committed to its program.

The Dems enforce party discipline rigorously. GOP “leadership:” lets the GOP run amok, although I’m encouraged by some of the reactions to Liz Cheney...but discouraged by some of those to MTG, which were obviously just to curry favor with the Dems. Better party leaders and better party discipline. You vote to impeach a GOP president, and you’re simply out of a job.

That, more than anything else is why I have so much problem with the Republican Party.

I don’t like the Green Party, but they are more than significant enough to have the right to be on the ballot.

I agree that there was an organized election fraud effort that consisted of many fraud vehicles— vote switching in computers, purposeful calculation errors, destruction of Republican mail-in ballots, fictitious and dead voters, etc.— but, theoretically, making it difficult for a third party to get, say, 10K more votes in a given state if it were on the ballot instead of having to rely on write-ins, means the cheaters would have to get 10K more fraudulent votes in a state, which they may or may not have done successfully in a state where the vote margin between Biden and Trump was close.

And that is why things were made so tough for the Green Party.

The other reason why things were made so tough for them is that the precedent was set to restrict their access to the ballot so that going forward the Green Party cannot develop as an opposition party to Demonrats.

Such a stupid opinion piece, Richard Moorehead. It was out and out election fraud theft that kept President Trump from his 2nd term as the legal duly reelected President.

Even though he won the legal vote by a very large margin. This election fraud theft was aided and assisted by the FBI, CIA, DoJ, GOPe, SCCOTUS, the military brass, and lastly, various foreign nations.

While you undoubtedly are to placate those Americans who are too blind to see or too timid to speak the truth. Count yourself among those who qualify for the previous description of Americans, if you actually believe the garbage you wrote.

However, it does not pass the smell test for real Americans who are not afraid to speak the truth about why Donald J. Trump is not still our president.

Unfortunately I don’t think any of this type stuff is the least bit new on either side. I think it was just more nationalized this time 🤷🏼

This is nothing compared to the millions of votes actually stolen in the most fraudulent election in American history.

I think Moorehead is trying to say that, in theory, if you have no other forms of election fraud, playing games that result in a third-party that was on the ballot in several states during several past presidential election cycles suddenly not being able to get ballot access is sort of a form of fraud in and of itself. It certainly suggests some sort of collusion or conspiracy.

This is PRECISELY WHY there should not be a Patriot Party.

The Uniparty will unite to keep patriot candidates off the ballot. No matter how many signatures are required, the Uniparty legislatures will find ‘irregularities’ and decree the PP candidate is not eligible. At that point, the only recourse is the courts, and we saw how well that worked in 2020.

Conservatives: do not leave the GOP. Find patriot candidates to run against the RINOs in the 2020 primaries. Purge the RINOs. Why should WE leave?

Democrats prevented Kanye West from being on the Wisconsin ballot by claiming, literally, that his lawyer filed the candidacy forms 14 seconds past the deadline.

Actually having to Republicans on the Georgia Senate General election race ruined it all. Plus that idiot Lin wood telling conservatives not to vote in run off. Those were the biggest WTF mistakes of the 2020 election.
