Also 89,923 Americans voted for her. This is all according to 270towin.com
So that means a small fraction of Americans are somewhat cool
Really surprised to see such staunch conservative strongholds like Florida and Tennesssee so strongly represented. Finally, one thing I can be proud of my state of birth for!
Could be because (some) voters already think voting dem is a lost cause. I wonder how many people voted Green there too. We have to keep in mind that voters are not militants, so they may or may not be stronger there in terms of rank and file.

Voting in 2028?
They would never let that happen
The ruling class of this country will not allow this to happen because it would clearly mean they lose power
You cannot vote your way out of capitalism.
am one of 33000 ish Californian comrades wooo
me and my 89,922 friends
Commiefornia? Surprising that florida is that large.
Still the graph is a bit misleading, would be more interesting to show a different graph with the % of people in those states that voted for her.
I could do that but it seemed less interesting. They were all less than 1% so we already know most Americans won’t vote communist.
But with this we can see who voted communist and where
It’s ever so slightly more interesting imho
edit: wording
The bigger issue I see with this map is it is going to loosly corilate to the size of a state where even though we are dealing with less than a percentage per state, the map of votes cast as a percentage would give us a better understanding of where each state stands
For sure, without adjusting per-capita, this is just a pie chart of the most populous states.
I see what ya mean.
Let me try making a different one
Unfortunately, the most realistic read on the PSL campaign is that it was a significant failure. PSL got about 100k votes nationwide, compared to about 626k for RFK Jr. When you’re far outpaced by a guy who dropped out months ago, you have to call that what it is. And this was an election where maybe 20 million fewer people voted than four years ago – you can’t pull in any meaningful chunk of that?
I don’t think anyone anticipated the psl doing well. America is vehemently anti-anything left of Reagan.
Doesn’t mean I can’t celebrate the fact America has at least some good people and comrades.
I voted PSL, and I’m glad there are at least the embers of an open socialist movement, but I don’t think we should fool ourselves about how bad this showing was. We’re right to point out how Democrats should be having a reckoning and a total reassessment of strategy – that criticism should be applied to PSL, too.
The party put together a nationwide campaign and didn’t even get as much support as the Greens (also north of 600k). Why? What approach should be changed moving forward to improve? Because an honest look shows the approach we had this time around was a complete flop.
I think we should be constructive talking about this, but 100k votes in the context of being far outperformed by other minor parties, and the context of almost 20 million fewer people voting altogether… this wasn’t in any way a success.
I just don’t think the general American populace has material conditions bad enough to forgo years of propaganda and anti-communist rhetoric.
America will sooner become openly fascist then they would support even a demsoc.
Yeah, it might just be that people are too comfortable to entertain radical change. Millions sitting it out altogether instead of looking at a minor party would certainly fit with that. Looking into those Biden-to-staying-home people could be promising for the left.
Have they not counted the write ins yet? Because I had to write in Claudia and yet don’t see anything about her for my state. She had official write in status too
Same, I don’t even see her on the count at all, just like, Trump, Harris, some libertarian dweeb, maybe Stein can’t remember
Nah this is just what is released so far. I imagine it is fairly indicative of the final result. But who knows
They’ve only counted like half of California’s votes.
write-ins should make a big difference.
They haven’t; the campaign is waiting for those results to trickle in over the next week before releasing official counts.
