According to "The People's Party" (which she co-founded) Nina originally WANTED to run as a "People's Party" candidate.

This was interesting:

"The People’s Party isn’t on the ballot in Ohio yet so she will have to run as a Democrat." (emphasis is mine)

https://peoplesparty.org/nina-turner-congress/


Her pathetic "People's Party" didn't have what it takes to get on the Ohio 11 ballot in time, otherwise she would run as a People's Party candidate. The reality is this: she's only grudgingly running as a Democrat and using OUR party in order to be on the ballot.
