    You can tell they aren’t serious by the lack of local political effort they put in.

        Posting a link to a handful of names on sporadic ballots across the US is a dumb person’s idea of what “serious electoral effort” is.

        Son, I am disappoint.

        The one guy running for a seat on the Arizona Corporation commission is the only one I saw running in the short of race where the Greens have a chance to affect change. Running for the federal House or Senate isn’t where they should be focusing their efforts until they build a base of support.

          Why not run for the House? A seat has 750k-800k population and quite a few districts are much further left then US average. If a further left candidate would run its those seats, that would force the Democrats to move left.

          Whoah whoah whoah. They shouldn’t run for state-level office until they’re landslide winning every mayoral election and student council.
