This implies she did it before, which is incorrect based on the massive amount of research that went into the 2016 election failures of the dem party.
Here’s an article from after the 2016 election about Stein and third parties impact. I think it’s interesting and good practice to compare the current moments with the past.

It’s easy to see why people point the finger at third-party votes. In Michigan, where the election was so close that the Associated Press still hasn’t called the result, Trump is ahead by about 12,000 votes. That’s significantly less than the 242,867 votes that went to third-party candidates in Michigan. It’s a similar story elsewhere: third-party candidates won more total votes than the Trump’s margin of victory in Wisconsin, Arizona, North Carolina and Florida. Without those states, Trump would not have won the presidency.
(An aside: while looking for articles using duckduckgo, an “AI” gave me a breakdown, and I hate it. Wtf DDG, you too?)
Yeah I was disappointed by DDG when I first saw their AI crap, but fortunately they let you turn it off completely.
Yeah. For now at least. Is it their own bot, or are they using the same one as the company they get search results from? I forget if it’s Google or Bing.
They say they provide “anonymous access to popular AI models, including GPT-4o mini, Claude 3, and open-source Llama 3.1 and Mixtral”
So it seems to be a bit of everything.
Instead of focusing on the thousands that are further left than you, maybe you should try to convince the millions that aren’t. But hey that would be far more democratic and wouldn’t be helpful to the status quo would it now…
“It’s directly Jill Steins fault. See look at how many votes ALL 3RD PARTY CANDIDATES COMBINED got!!! No please don’t talk about how the left combined took up a whopping 15% of the 3rd party vote. That libertarian party is like 85% of the 3rd party vote. Or that 40% of people able to vote simply don’t. Nope. Blame 0.31% of voters please and thank you.”
I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who wants to vote for Jill Stein.
