Reply to comment by BrockVegas in 3% of Massachusetts voted for The Green Party by Linux-Is-Best

No dispute. But sad, because Howie Hawkins, the Green party candidate in 2020, was a decent guy. (Nowhere near qualified, mind you, but as an unqualified outsider, he'd have done a better job representing the interests of the WWC than Donald Trump.)

Putting up unqualified candidates seems to be what the Green party is all about, which is really fucking weird for a state like Massachusetts where one would assume there to be more qualified individuals that align.

Spoiler candidates are spoiler candidates I guess...

I'm not in the Green party, nevermind in charge of it, but I'd probably work on running for city council in Chelsea, P'town, and Somerville (or other dark-blue districts). Reassuring voters they're competent and sane has to be the first step to winning a mayoral or state-wide race.
