    But in smaller, more local races

    They still routinely get blown out 80/20 on a good year because they have no media presence and nobody with a chance at winning wants to run under their brand.

    If you can win as a Green, you’d just run as a Democrat in the same way that Libertarians who want to win just run as Republicans.

    Just like the DSA does.

    The D in DSA stands for Democrats.

    They’re a caucus, not a party. And when they do win, they’ll often struggle to keep their elected officials loyal to the platform.
