Look, if biden is going to win this state on his own, leave it alone.

To take stinky off the ballot will only create a situation where a third party candidate becomes attractive as a protest vote. It would also depress dem turnout.

Add those together and biden might actually lost that state, and be denied the EV's. We DON'T want that.

Limit this to swing and red states. Or, all states.
