    hey you ain’t exactly wrong. Jill Stein is just going straight for the office she will never, ever win. Republicans are steamrolling this by snatching up undesirable small-time seats and then being complete freaking loose nuts.

    If Jill Stein ever gave a fuck, she would build support county to county. And we need that person. But it ain’t her.

      State chairs are responsible for state strategies. There are actually elections regulations that, surprise, make it very hard to mingle state and federal activities too much.

          Nowhere without ballot access, which requires votes in federal elections in most places.

          With ballot access they can all of a sudden play ball just by threatening dem chair to run spoilers.

          It’s not fast or easy. The system is built to prevent third parties from being able to even function, and you’re using the results of those oppressive regulations to prove there’s no point.

          Register green, call your green state chair and run for state house once. You’ll get a lot of info, strategy meetings and party training. Enjoy the education, fix your registration and move forward understanding the bit of the system you’re trying to critique.
