Join NowROUNDUP: Third-Party Candidates Teaming Up with Republicans to Sow Election Denier Scheme
WASHINGTON, D.C. – As Vice President Kamala Harris continues to connect with voters and make the case for new, bold leadership, Republicans are working hand in hand with third-party candidates to challenge ballot access and sow the seeds for Trump’s election-denying lies.
Jill Stein and her team are openly admitting they’re only in it to help Trump defeat Democrats. At a recent Stein event, activist Kshama Sawant confessed that Stein had no chance of winning the White House but that their goal was to spoil the election by denying Harris a win in Michigan – likely handing Trump the presidency.
Meanwhile, a Pennsylvania judge denied Cornel West’s desperate last-minute effort with Republicans to bypass Pennsylvania voters and sue his way onto the ballot, which would have undermined the early voting and set the stage for MAGA election interference. 1.1 million ballots have already been printed and delivered to Keystone State voters; Pennsylvania Deputy Secretary for Elections Jonathan Marks stated that he wasn’t confident that new ballots could even be printed in time and that many voting machines and tabulators have already gone through the logic and accuracy testing required before Election Day.
Failed presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is continuing to team up with Donald Trump to peddle lies and downplay his disastrous record on health care. This week, RFK Jr. and Trump are planning a “health care-focused” virtual town hall. What they refuse to say is that Donald Trump fought to kick people off their insurance and repeal the Affordable Care Act, doled out tax breaks to Big Pharma, and restricted reproductive rights.
