Climate change and nuclear weapons threaten our very survival. Use your vote to send a clear message:
We want to survive!
Trump wants to be dictator for a day
so he can “drill, drill, drill”
Kamala Harris is without question a better human being than Trump. But the reality is that she represents the same corporate interests that continue to threaten the planet with climate catastrophe and nuclear war.
These are not your only choices! You can

To make your vote count in this election…
Another term for Donald Trump would be an unmitigated disaster for this country and the world. But the Biden Administration has failed to deliver when it comes to most serious existential threats facing this planet right now -and continues to push the world towards World War III with Russia and/or China. We can do better than this – and we must!
It all depends on which state you live (vote) in, because in this great “democracy” of ours, your vote only really counts if you live in one of the so-called “battleground,” “swing,” or PURPLE states. These are the states where every vote matters because the vote is so close – too close to call.
In 2016, Trump won the election by just 10,704 votes in Michigan (0.2% of total votes cast), 22,748 votes in Wisconsin (0.8% of total votes), and 44,292 votes in Pennsylvania (0.8% of votes). Without those 77,744 votes in those three states, he would have lost to Hillary Clinton in the Electoral College (even though, nationally, she received almost 3 million more votes than Trump).
In 2020, Joe Biden won the election by just 10,457 votes in Arizona (0.3% of total votes cast), 11,779 votes in Georgia (0.2% of total votes), 20,682 votes in Wisconsin (0.6% of votes), and 33,596 votes in Nevada (2.4% of votes). Without those 76,514 votes in those four states, Biden would have lost to Trump in 2020 (even though Biden received a total of 7 million more votes than Trump overall).
Most recent polling in the key “battleground” states:
state | STATUS | Trump | Harris | other/DK | % gap | date |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Arizona | PURPLE | 48.7% | 47% | 4.3% | 1.7% | Oct-27 |
Georgia | PURPLE | 48.2% | 47.3% | 4.5% | 0.9% | Oct-27 |
Michigan | PURPLE | 47% | 47.8% | 5.2% | 0.8% | Oct-25 |
Nevada | PURPLE | 48% | 47.7% | 4.3% | 0.3% | Oct-25 |
North Carolina | PURPLE | 49% | 47.9% | 3.1% | 1.1% | oct-25 |
Pennsylvania | PURPLE | 48.1% | 47.7% | 4.2% | 0.4% | Oct-25 |
Wisconsin | PURPLE | 47.7% | 48.1% | 4.2% | 0.4% | Oct-28 |

Of course many things can change by November 5th, but Harris must win in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, to beat Trump in the Electoral College, and so far, the polls in those states are still very, very close – and well within the margin of polling error. If she loses Michigan or Wisconsin, we would have to win in Georgia to win in the Electoral College. If she loses Pennsylvania, she would have to win in Georgia and Nevada to win the election. And if she lost all three northern states, she would need to additionally win in Arizona and North Carolina. Again the polls in these states are very, very close – and too close to call at this stage. Other combinations of states are possible for a Harris win, but highly unlikely.
A few other states are also potentially in play, and we are calling these the “marginal” states (colored light red or light blue on the map below). But the reality is that this election comes down to a few thousand voters in just 7 PURPLE states. For the rest of the country, the outcome is already pretty well decided. But if you live in one of these solid RED or BLUE state, your vote can still make a difference if you SWAP YOUR VOTE!
In order to encourage people who are on the fence in PURPLE states to vote for Kamala Harris rather than for a third party or not at all, we need people in RED and BLUE states to be willing to vote for their preferred candidate in your state, in exchange for them voting for Harris in their state. (People in the marginal states can choose one or the other)
Are you willing to swap your vote?
Click on your state on the map below for details on how best to use your vote on November 5th, 2024 if you want your vote to count as a Vote to Survive!
Your vote can still make a difference!
Red and Blue States (Nov 5, 2024): In most states, you have an opportunity to vote for third-party candidates like Cornel West (Independent), Claudia de la Cruz (Socialist), Chase Oliver (Libertarian) or Jill Stein (Green), without any risk of helping Trump get elected, since in Red States Trump is going to win no matter how you vote, and in Blue States Harris is going to win no matter how you vote. But you help prevent Trump from winning with swap your vote.
Purple States (Nov 5, 2024): It is only in the so-called “battleground” purple states that your vote really does determine who will end up in the White House. If you live in one of these states, you can swap your vote with someone in a red or blue state in order to add a vote to a survival candidate while still making sure that you are not helping Trump get elected.
“Marginal” Light Red and Light Blue States: In these states, either Trump or Harris is highly likely to win – and they are not critical to the final result. So you can choose to vote for a third party and swap your vote as if it were a solid RED or solid BLUE state. BUT, if you want to ensure a Harris victory and don’t like taking chances, you can choose to vote for Harris and swap your vote as if you are in a PURPLE state.
Net result: We will end up with President Harris, but you have a chance to make clear to her that you want to see some changes – and especially in addressing the existential threats to humanity!
