Well, it would be interesting if the Green Party can crack more than 1% with this candidate.

We’ll probably never see a Green Party member in Congress.

Don't be so sure, a D might get kicked out of the caucus at some point and just take the Green Party line since no others are available.

He's running against probably the most liberal NJ Dem in Congress, who also happens to be a woman of color in what is most likely a majority-minority district at this point?

Not happening.

Right? She even voted against the condemnation of BDS.
That said, Hedges is pretty legit as far as Greens go. Really smart guy with fascinating politics. I used to quite enjoy his work before I became more moderate. BUT as I just saw, he's not running b/c he can't keep his show at the same time.

He should have moved to Vermont if he really wanted to make an impact.
