This is addressed to individuals who are planning to vote for the Green Party candidates in the presidential election. Because it is assured that Biden will carry Massachusetts, you may feel that voting for the Hawkins/Walker ticket does no harm.
In fact, Biden and Harris have to win the national popular vote by the largest majority possible. This will help make impossible the sort of legal challenges and even violence that have been promised by Trump and his supporters.
There must be absolutely no doubt about the results. This is an exceptional election with more at stake than in any election in recent memory. Add your votes to the Democratic ticket and help this country avoid what could be a wrenching series of events and a genuine constitutional crisis. And ask yourselves, under which president will I get a more sympathetic hearing for my political views.
