Green Party presidential candidate on ballot in Iowa

This kind of language is alienating, and will only repel voters who are on the fence about whether to vote third-party or bite the bullet and vote for Clinton.

This week the New York Times revealed that the total number of primary votes cast for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump only account for about 9% of the U.S. population.

The Green Party’s Nebraska coordinator, Jen Hansen, said she, staff and volunteers spent about three weeks collecting signatures.

A small community of programmers have started organizing across a range of platforms in order to get Jill Stein elected president of the United States.

The data shows a split in how voters act.

It’s clear that Jill Stein’s candidacy is more a war of words than a honest effort to confront the complex realities of public health and all the other issues facing this country.

Granted, this alignment was relatively weak.

Johnson wouldn’t be the first third-party candidate with national prospects. The effect was bigger in 2004 and 2008 than in 2012. This effect didn’t exist at all before 1996, according to our analysis. The Marijuana Party of Nebraska also is seeking a spot. Ralph Nader was a factor in 2000.

“Trump is uniquely risky and focuses people’s attention in a way that, say, Jeb Bush probably wouldn’t have”, says Bob Master, a regional political director for the Communications Workers of America union and a co-founder of the Working Families Party.

Stein will not appear on the Nebraska ballot as a Green Party candidate because the group isn’t a recognized political party in the state.

South Dakota law prohibits voters from writing in candidates. Johnson himself has done the third-party thing before. Doctors themselves should be brought under the scope of her campaign as many are paid to promote more expensive but biochemically identical drugs to their patients. “Because if you can, I’m going to vote for him”.

CEDAR RAPIDS | Presumptive Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein has accomplished something Hillary Clinton hasn’t.

Right now, debate rules say a candidate needs to hit at least 15 percent in national polls to make the cut.

Stuart Rothenberg writes about the politics of the presidential and congressional races.

Polling at around five percent, the prospect of a Jill Stein presidency isn’t all too likely.

A few states have proven more fertile for long-shot candidates than the rest. Officially, George W. Bush won by 537 votes. Others will be from red states Trump would win anyway. They are merely deciding whether they can vote for the major party nominees or not. As of June 30, Stein’s presidential campaign had taken in $859,000.

And last week, while Democratic nominee Clinton was inside the convention hall accepting her nomination, a large crowd outside was protesting that seemingly predetermined nomination. The more one-sided states, by contrast, are unlikely to see as many of those ads. In fact, it’s many of Stein’s policies that have attracted Bernie Sanders’ supporters to her campaign, including tackling climate change, campaign finance reform, and dealing with income inequality.
