claudia_karina2024 & The Vote Socialist campaign is putting socialism on the map!

Thanks to the hard work of thousands of volunteers, the majority of people in this country will see socialism on the ballot this November! Additional official write-in states are still to be announced!

The two-party system makes it incredibly difficult for third party candidates without huge financial resources to access ballots in some states. No matter what status your state is, we encourage supporters to get involved and help build the movement for a future by and for the people beyond the ballot box!

Whether you can donate your money your time, or both - we need your help.

Visit @votesocialist2024.com/volunteer to learn how you can get involved!

How often do they just discard write ins? It seems like they just wouldn't count them most of the time.

If someone has "official write in status" then they are counted. Otherwise they are tossed.

I dunno. I don't trust write ins. They'll probably say it's "illegible" and "what the hell does this say, I can't read this", or even, "who is this doctor voting for?"
