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.

What do you think a political party is?

If you think a political party (or “serious electoral/political effort”) is just “names on a few ballots,” there is no amount of crayons that someone can use to draw you a picture and get you up to speed.

Pick a candidate or GoTV organization to volunteer with for a while and come back after that experience.

Did do that, helped several greens get elected. The green party has more grassroots support than any dem pres candidate in history. You have billionaires, racist soccer moms, aipac, and no real humans on your side.

Do you have a source or was this bullshit pulled from your own ass?

Source is the experience outside your rich/upper middle class white bubble.

Yes they are a much smaller political party, that doesnt mean theyre not putting in serious effort
