The ā€œUncommittedā€ movement seeking a change in the Democratic Partyā€™s approach to the war in Gaza on Thursday announced it is not ready to support Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris ā€” while urging voters not to back Republican nominee Donald Trump or third-party candidates who could help Trump win the November election.

The ā€œUncommittedā€ group ā€œopposes a Donald Trump presidency, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killing in Gaza while intensifying the suppression of anti-war organizing,ā€ the statement continues. Additionally, the group is ā€œnot recommending a third-party vote in the Presidential election, especially as third party votes in key swing states could help inadvertently deliver a Trump presidency given our countryā€™s broken electoral college system.ā€

    ā€œWell, letā€™s cross our fingers and hope the Democrats can get out the vote despite our virtue signalling.ā€

    This announcement is just pointless.

      At least weā€™re not getting the ā€˜vote third partyā€™ spiel. Iā€™ll never hold a personā€™s opinions on the Dems against them. I just donā€™t want anything done or suggested that will help Trump and his merry band of assholes.
