youre arguing they shouldnt be allowed to run because theyll spoil the party that benefits

No I'm not. I'm saying it is almost always a waste of a vote to give them your vote. And anybody running as a 3rd party candidate should do so strategically, in places where there is actually a chance to win without causing ideologically furthest opponents from winning.

Huge swaths of races in the U.S. go unopposed, largely at the local level. Third parties could easily and cheaply target those races, but they don't.

Sorry, im mixed up in several posts specifically about barring third parties from running. This one is just criticism.
