With 10 days until Election Day and early voting underway in many states, Republicans appear to be targeting battleground states using shady tactics meant to disrupt the Democratic vote.
Recent reporting sheds light on third-party candidates who are receiving significant financial backing from conservative-affiliated dark-money groups. This could set the stage for spoiler candidates to siphon crucial votes away from Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and give her GOP opponent Donald Trump more footing to reoccupy the White House.
According to a Washington Post investigation, Republican super PAC Badger Values has spent at least $307,000 on mailers and advertising to bolster the Green Party’s Jill Stein in Wisconsin. This investment raises concerns about the intention behind such funding, especially in a state whose electoral votes are critical to winning the White House.
The group sent mailers to voters in Wisconsin advocating for Stein. The mailers read, “As President, Jill Stein would end pollution in our great lakes and rivers,” and claimed “Kamala Harris and co. don’t care about the environment.”
Since when is the GOP the party of environmental concern and “green” friendliness? Last time I checked, their nominee giddily destroyed environmental protections while in office.
