Stein is a Russia-planted spoiler candidate. That's it

  Suggesting that Jill Stein is a “Russian stooge” dismisses legitimate political discourse and attempts to silence alternative viewpoints. It’s a tactic to coerce voters into conformity rather than encouraging healthy debate and democracy.
  In the end, I refuse to be intimidated into voting against my conscience.
  Voting for the candidate who best represents my beliefs is not just a right—it’s a responsibility.
  Democracy thrives on diversity of thought, and I will continue to exercise my right to vote for the candidate who truly speaks for me, regardless of the fearmongering that often comes from the two-party system.
  
  In the end it sure looks like you're just keeping your head in the sand because you think you're not crazy, everyone else saying you are is crazy.
  
  That's super my guy. Just tell me one thing.
  How does Jill get to 270 electoral votes? Oh that's right she can't. You're only helping trump by voting for Jill.
  Look up "beginning game theory first past the post" and you'll realize why.
Good for her but she should watch out for Cornel West.
They’re neck and neck.
- Not a fan of Cornel West.
  
  Why not?
  He’s every bit as good as Jill.
What state or congressional candidates are the greens running this year? Seems like you only ever hear about Stein the last 3 elections, did they even campaign for mid terms?
I'm not a fan of the libertarian party but they seem to at least have the right idea with focusing on local and state elections in places where they can actually win.
- Green should def focus om more local/state. Tho there have been a few wins here and there. They need to do more.

The Nevada State Democratic Party filed a lawsuit in June accusing the Greens of failing to gather the required number of signatures
This is why I don’t like calling them the Democratic Party. They do such undemocratic things.
- Agreed. They definitely don't do very "democratic" things and are happy to team up with the republicans if it means the two parties stay in power.
  And not only that, but The Green Party of Nevada had turned in nearly 30,000 signatures for ballot access – far more than the required 10,000. And that's why the Green Party won the lawsuit.
  
  Yeah. Sounds like a frivolous lawsuit to drain the Green Party’s resources, because the Democrats know the Greens don’t have much money.
