Donald Trump's historic comeback: How third-party candidates shaped the 2024 election

India Today  

In a stunning political comeback, Donald Trump has secured an historic victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, defeating Democrat Kamala Harris in what was expected to be a closely contested race. De la Cruz’s unapologetic socialist vision found a following among voters seeking transformative change rather than incremental reform, offering a stark contrast to the establishment positions of both Trump and Harris. Third-party candidates can pull votes away from one of the main contenders, especially in crucial swing states, potentially altering the final tally. A similar argument was made in the 2016 election, when Jill Stein’s Green Party campaign was accused of drawing votes away from Hillary Clinton in crucial battleground states like Michigan and Wisconsin, handing Trump an unexpected victory.
