Definitely debatable. Nader had 97k votes in Florida, and Gore needed about 500.
There are a number of variables that arguably screwed Gore. The ballot format, the chads, the court, the completion from the left, etc. Many argue that removing any one of those variables could’ve likely tipped things for Gore.
Going to back to the point of this thread. Someone like West is not going to win. Vote for him if you want, but if you’re in a state that is going to be tight, voting for him will make it easier for the far right candidate to get certified.
One of those candidates is literally running on overturning democratic elections, giving even more money and free rein to private industry, and having his family in appointmented positions.
Also Roger Stone and the rest of the Brooks Brothers Riot ratfuckers for delaying and disrupting the recount enough to give SCOTUS cover for their ridiculous decision to weigh in at all.
nader didn’t put bush in the whitehouse

The false equivalency stuff needs to end.
that’s not what far right means, and there is no false equivalency being made
And SCOTUS handing it to him, of course.
