A US State with the capacity to elect a Nazi. It seems unlikely, he's polling at 35%... but that's also near what he got to win the Republican nomination. In most cases (true in Europe, too) overt far-right loons have a polling cap of around 35%. But under FPTP that can be enough to win.

Big day for Royce White news, here he is saying the bad guys won World War 2 (h/t Heartland Signal). He is on the ballot for U.S. Senate with the full endorsement of the Minnesota Republican Party.

A lot of defenders of FPTP say that it prevents extremists from getting into power because it's simply locks them out if they're polling around 5%. But under that same FPTP system they never need to win majority support anywhere. They can just split their opposition and with good luck... done.
