No space for other voices: U.S. “democracy” silences third parties
Manage episode 406235817 series 3291330
For the so-called “greatest democracy on Earth,” elections in the United States are a mess of regulations and laws that differ by state.
The system is controlled by the Democratic and Republican parties. Just as they seek to destroy any dissent that challenges their status quo, they do so in the electoral arena by placing onerous requirements on independent candidates and third parties, restricting the rights of people to vote and much more.
As we’ve just passed Super Tuesday and are well into the 2024 campaign season, we wanted to dive more into the stranglehold the Republicans and Democrats have on the electoral system and any real choice at the voting booth with someone who’s very familiar with this - we’re joined by Claudia de la Cruz, the Presidential candidate of the Party for Socialism and Liberation.
