Democrats and Republicans rush to avert third party spoilers

Two congresswomen running for U.S Senate in Arizona are crisscrossing the state, raising millions of dollars and trying to exploit every possible advantage to eke out a win in what both sides expect to be a photo-finish race.

The wild card: Angela Green, a Green Party candidate who could win votes that might have gone to Democrat Krysten Sinema, clearing a path to victory for Republican Martha McSally.

But on Thursday, Green suddenly announced she would drop out of the race and endorsed Sinema.

“After watching the debates and seeing everything, Sinema’s stance on a lot of things are very close to mine,” Green said in an interview with Channel 12 news in Phoenix.

The about face demonstrates the significance third party candidates are playing as Election Day nears and key races tighten across the country.

Don't waste your vote on a third-party candidate that has no chance of winning. It doesn't 'make a statement'.. it only enables a possible Democrat win by diverting votes.

That is their plan. Many of the 'alternative party' candidates are there for just that purpose.

Something doesn't feel just right. Was she bought out?

F*** Tony Campbell after his racist "White People, White People" comments at the Lincoln Day Dinner last weekend at Salisbury University.

Tony Campbell is a closet Democrat running as a Republican and he needs to be outed. Stay on your side of the bridge you racist Douche Bag and take Cornbread with you.

Dixieland forever!
