Open the Debates

It's time to open up the political system to new ideas, fresh voices, & better choices. #OpenTheDebates to #MoreVoicesBetterChoices:

[Open the Debates @OpenTheDebates]

Does @cnn realize that in 2016, U.S. voters wanted to #OpenTheDebates to all ballot-qualified candidates by a margin of 76% to 17%?

And that was before US “democracy” jumped the shark!

[Holden Culotta @Holden_Culotta]

CNN announces June 27 Presidential Debate and rules for candidates to qualify:

1. “A candidate’s name must appear on a sufficient number of state ballots to reach the 270 electoral vote threshold to win the presidency prior to [June 20].”

2. Candidates must “receive at least 15% in four separate national polls of registered or likely voters that meet CNN’s standards for reporting.”

Is CNN leaving the door open for RFK Jr. to qualify and participate?

Tuesday is the last day to cast your ballot in California! have you voted?
Only a small number of the 23 million California voters are Green, so today, WE NEED YOU & YOUR VOTE!

"Ranked choice voting is a better alternative to runoffs.

It feels we're more polarized than ever on politics. But something most Georgians can agree on: we all have voter fatigue, & we’re sick of the ads."

California, you have an opportunity to redirect the course of human history today.

Despite all their efforts at suppression and disenfranchisement, you can strike a death blow at the heart of Zionism, imperialism, capitalism, and white supremacy.

And you can inscribe healthcare, housing, human rights, and equity into our collective future.

Once again for the people in the back: WE’RE THE TERRORISTS!

[Ralph Nader @RalphNader]

The New York Times headline “Trump Cuts Off Life Necessities for Immigrants — Even Legal Residents — Forcing Exits by Severing Access to Child Care, Jobs and Housing” revealed what Trump is all about when it comes to immigrants, documented or undocumented—BIGOTRY, CRUELTY AND BEING AN OUTLAW ENFORCER. Recall Trumps “s—hole countries” comment and his wish for more immigrants from countries like Norway.

What Trump doesn’t want you to recall is having undocumented workers serving him at his Bedminster, New Jersey golf course, or his early exploitation of hundreds of undocumented Polish workers on his construction site in New York. Also, he’d rather you not hear about what people coming from these brown and black countries do for America—such as harvest our crops, clean up after us, take care of our elderly, serve as nannies for affluent Americans and do health care and other jobs, like working in meat and chicken processing plants under conditions considered intolerable by the established labor force.

Just another awareness by the American people, a growing majority of whom want him IMPEACHED AND REMOVED FROM OFFICE.

TRUMP’S TYRANNY IS GOING TO GET WORSE, MUCH WORSE FOR AMERICA AND ABROAD. UNLESS HE IS FIRED! -R

This flag hangs proudly in my office. Thanks to the @LP_Alaska delegate who gave this to me as a gift at our recent national convention.

Liberty means you should be able to live as your authentic self in peace without intrusion from government and having your right to life and property respected.

Let Cuba live!!!

[Green Party of California @cagreens1]

Over 65% of voters say they want a third party and representatives who have better policies and plans for them and their families than the parties of genocide and fascisms!
Well, we got that!
SO THIS IS THE TIME TO VOTE FOR THAT ONE CANDIDATE!

Let CA voters know they have a real choice, a write-in choice, for revolutionary political, economic, and cultural transformation!

With proportional representation & multi-member districts, "all voters can affect elections by affecting their party’s representation.

These reforms also reduce polarization, restrain gerrymandering, & boost competition."

If there’s no debate, there’s no democracy.

[Eli Beckerman 🌻 @EliBeckerman]

What’s that? You didn’t know you had a real choice for CA governor, not some fake-ass progressive buying influencer praise and making his billions off of prison labor? Well it’s not too late… at least not yet… to buck the system and #WriteInButchWare.

[Independent Voter @ivn]

The DNC’s 2024 autopsy has a glaring blind spot: Independent voters.

They made up 34% of the electorate. They decided the swing states. And they are now larger than either major party’s base.

Ignoring them isn’t analysis, writes Matt Shinners. It’s denial. #IndependentVoters #DNC #Democrats #2024Election #VoterPower

[Open the Debates @OpenTheDebates]

The @CA_Dem effort to keep @ButchWare off the ballot, out of polls, debates & media coverage is next-level treachery. 61 candidates on the ballot yet two minor redaction errors on tax returns and bullshit communications to inform him of the error is as anti-democratic as it gets.

[Dr. Butch Ware @ButchWare]

I was removed from the ballot because my polling numbers required CBS, CNN, and all the major networks to allow me to participate in their televised debates. The ballot disqualification gave them an excuse to exclude me.

Zionists were not going to allow that to happen, because it would have made the California Governor debates a referendum on divestment from Genocide.

Write my name in. Because this election is still a referendum on genocide.

Divest from occupation, invest in liberation:

[FairVote @fairvote]

On May 26, Texas will hold runoffs for its 2026 primary elections – 12 weeks after voters went to the polls the first time.

With ranked choice voting, Texas could eliminate runoffs. That would save time for voters and tens of millions of taxpayer dollars.

@jimmy_dore @ButchWare @kurtmetzger @miserablelib @jimmy_dore doing the thing! Shouting out @ElaineCulotti @lipstickfarmer during his @ButchWare interview. It’s almost like you think we should have @FreeandEqual elections!

POLL: Who would you like to see in the #CAgov debates? Maybe you should hold one!

[Open the Debates @OpenTheDebates]

Are independent-leaning voters in California happy with their choices for Governor? Why aren’t the independent & third party candidates included in polls or debates? 30% of voters are independent! Voters want #MoreVoicesBetterChoices!

Who would you like to see in debates?

California’s Top Two primary is under attack — but the candidate responses don’t break down the way party leaders might expect.

Some Democrats, Republicans, and Greens are defending every voter’s right to participate. Others won’t say where they stand. #CApolitics #Vote2026 #TopTwoPrimary #Independentvoters
