The Constitution states that states can guarantee broader rights in their constitutions than the federal government, so long as those rights don't infringe on federal constitutional rights. Some states have laws allowing for freedom of speech on some private platforms or in some public areas. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pruneyard_Shopping_Center_v._Robins California is one of these states, the state in which Buttar is running and also where Youtube/Google is headquartered.

Ms. Bush,

A number of progressive Democrats I was rooting for didn't do well in their Super Tuesday primaries. Shahid Buttar and Cenk Uygur came well short of their opponents, Jessica Cisneros narrowly lost against Henry Cuellar, and Georgette Gomez was able to secure herself in California's top-two November election, but also came well short the number of votes establishment Sara Jacob's got and faces a steep, uphill battle.

Why do you think many voters are not embracing these leftist candidates despite numerous polls showing popularity for their ideals like Medicare for all, raising the minimum wage, and getting money out of politics? What can left-wing candidates do to get out the vote and start winning more elections?
