”This helps take away votes from Joe Biden,” the activist told one person at the rally, according to a video posted to X (formerly Twitter) by a Washington Post reporter. “We’re helping the Trump team who’s trying to get him on there,” added a woman by his side.

    You’ll note I said ‘like’ in favor of ‘vote’… Obviously we need to be voting to defeat trump, and I doubt any credible progressive is going to be not recognizing that.

    but can I ask who, if that wasn’t an issue, would you like? Or maybe better way of saying it. If we had ranked choice or similar voting system… who’d be your first pick?

      I’d vote for Bernie. I’d vote for AOC or Tlaib. I really like Cori Bush. Fetterman is my Senator, and I’ll vote for him again even though I disagree with his stance on Israel. Really, I don’t agree with anyone on Israel/Palestine, because that situation is far too nuanced to be expressed by a politician in an election year.

      Also, if I had a pick, I would go with STAR voting. It’s better than RCV in almost every way.
