Enter: Green Party candidate Joe Manchik.
----------
Joe Manchik couldnt even remember his own fucking website! And yet, Joe Manchik is also responsible for winning over 1,100 votes, or some 0.6 percent of votes that probably would have gone to OConnor.
And thats my biggest beef with the Green Party; your LaVar Ball-ish sideshow shit is taking votes from viable Democratic candidates who are actually trying to implement change.

You only get to vote for the third party guy if you are so steeped in some kind of privilege the impact of trump and a republican house and senate will not actually have a negative impact on you economically.... if you are not that then you are an eejit, at best

I love crap like this. Exaggerating and distorting what other people say is just so conducive to advancing a discussion.
