Will the Greens be on the ballot in his state? Is it true that the Greens will avoid putting their candidates on the ballot in swing states to avoid flipping the election?

Which statist control freak gang will pay more for Prez candidates ???
— communist Donkeys to get LP on ballots ???
— fascist Elephants to get Greens on ballots ???
to DIVIDE AND CONQUER >>> IE ANOTHER MINORITY RULE PREZ REGIME.
Please provide one example of Democrats ever paying to get LP on ballots. Most of them are of the opinion the LP would take votes from them.
@WalteRZioboro: Howie Hawkins, the frontrunner for GPUS nominee for President, has vocally opposed the notion of “safe states” for decades. He has been one of the leading voices on the Left in general in this regard. Not sure if the GP is already on the ballot in Minnesota or will have to petition, but they will almost certainly be on the ballot.
Gee — is the LP $$$ free market demand/supply econ platform more HOSTILE to RED Donkey communism or BLUE Elephant fascism ???
I believe the only ballot qualified parties in Minnesota at the moment are the two big parties and two tiny cannabis advocacy parties, the Legal Marijuana Now Party and the Grassroots-Legalize Cannabis Party. If I’m wrong Richard can correct me.
Never knew Ventura was a communist.
Demo Rep
Our platform is a lot more than just free markets. We disagree with the left, right and center alike. You’ve shown zero evidence that Democrats ever paid for LP ballot access. The assumption is completely wrong.
I’m not surprised Jesse Ventura is not running. He has been teasing presidential runs for close to 20 years and never done it.
I do question why he’s gone Green Party when he used to claim to be a small “l” libertarian.
I like Jesse, and I think there are some things to admire about him, but philosophical consistency is not one of them.
Expedient ad hoc hacks = NO principles.
NOOO ASSumptions in ??? questions.
Communism — top left hacks CONTROL.
Fascism — top right hacks CONTROL.
Such a BIG difference !!! ???
Again — USA Fed/State/local regimes since 1776 —
1/2 or less votes x 1/2 gerrymander areas = 1/4 or less CONTROL.
Much much much worse primary math since 1888-1890.
IE for polisci dummies — ANTI-Democracy minority rule monarchs/oligarchs vs REAL Democracy
— for 6,000 plus years of recorded history.

TOTSOP
Also – the special interest gangs often rig election dates on stuff like bonds / borrowing.
Result — looooow voter turnouts = FALSE/SHAM REAL Democracy results.
ONE Election Day per year — offices and issues —
reduced torture TV attack ads on voters — bankrupt extremist groups.
Me gusta dormir con burros rojos y elefantes azules.
He said the day before that he would still be open to the GP nominating from the floor at the convention.
Chickenshit Jesse is more full of crap every day.

@WalterZiobro: ABSOLUTELY not on “safe states,” at least if Hawkins is the nominee and I venture Hunter agrees.
Hawkins already told Chomsky, Ehrenreich et al to “stick it” on their safe states letter a couple of months ago. https://socraticgadfly.blogspot.com/2020/02/howie-hawkins-tells-chomskyites-to-stfu.html
