Stein--Virginia and Wyoming Progress
Submitted by apenultimate on Sun, 08/28/2016 - 9:04am
Reports coming out of the Virginia Green Party say that the state has verified enough signatures to get Jill Stein on the ballot there. The announcement will come Monday.
This provides direct access to another 13 electoral college votes, bringing her ballot (non-write-in) access to 451 electoral votes nationwide--she is on the ballot now in 38 states plus Washington D.C.
Also, two days ago the Geen Party of Wyoming submitted signatures to get Stein on the ballot there.
Just a note--all the maps out there showing Stein/Green Party ballot access have not been fully updated. Seems like events have been moving too fast for them!
Onwards!

Good news!
Too bad the petitioners had to be hired, but I guess that's what it takes. I wish there was a better Green Party website and that Jill wasn't so Facebook oriented.
Are you aware of the booster club youtube channel?

They post all her interviews.
There's also a Jill Stein topic channel

I like this poster
Anyone have the skills to change 2010 to 2016?
Thanks for the update!

I had to create an FB account to read Jill's feed
It was half covered with a "sign up or log in" pop up until I did. Fake name (my 70 years dead grandfather with a generic name) a +fb tag on the email and a series of unsubscribe clicks on a few pieces of "helpful" spam. It seems to be working so far...

Petitioners hired?
Hadn't heard this, I petitioned in Va. totally voluntarily.
Should I send Jill a bill?
Nature is my religion; the earth is my temple.
Thank you. We need Virginia.
I contacted the editorial staff of all the student-run newspapers in VA, asking them to write about forgiveness of student debt. There were frequently photos on their websites of the entire staff. In some schools, it looks like the majority of them have to have loans to go to college at all. At a couple of them, though, it looked like the staff gathered just be getting dessed for a fox hunt!
If these campus publications do write about student loan debt, their readers will know what the Green workers are talking about, anyway.

Lol
That's awful!
When I first saw it, I was thinking "Damn! She even smiles when giving someone the old Italian 'up yours' motion!"
I do like that "Vote Green in 2016" rhymes! Much better than 2010.
Politicians smile. It's what they do. :-) n/t

Thanks!
I like your update. I think the original is from Britain.

YW. If you want it without Jill's face
Let me know. I can crank it out in 2 secs.

I think of this as Rosie the Riveter
showing off her biceps. But now I'll also always see the Italian arm gesture.

The ruling classes need an extra party to make the rest of us feel as if we participate in democracy. That's what the Democrats are for. They make the US more durable than the Soviet Union was.
Don't Throw Your Vote Away and get the Hildebeast elected...
I sincerely hope you youngsters do not make the same mistake I did when I voted for Ross Perot. That stupid mistake is directly responsible for the mess we are in now with this Hildebeast running for President. All I did was throw a vote to Billy Jeff and if I knew then what I know now, I would have voted to keep him out. I didn't understand that then, the same way people voting for Jill Stein or Gary Johnson don't understand that any vote other than Trump helps that proven liar and criminal become President. At least Trump will take much of the corruption out of the system and lay the groundwork for a third party to have a chance in future elections. A Hildebeast Presidency will fortify and further entrench the corruption. Trump is the only answer here...
Nope and Noper. Jill Stein 2016

Got the bumper sticker & yard sign.
Right on!!!!
Damn Slick Willie took our jobs with NAFTA and Shillary is right behind.
Stein vote is a wasted vote.
Vote Trump.
Don't Listen People
Trump isn't running to win, and he's friends with the Clintons.
As to the "throw your vote away" ridiculousness, the only way to break the corporate duopoly is to not vote for either of them and to increase the power of third parties. Even a 5% popular vote result will get the Green Party on the ballot automatically in most states (no need to spend time and money getting candidates on the ballot), not to mention the $20 million in Federal funding for future presidential elections. Five percent is definitely within the realm of possible, so don't let these arguments fool you.
Not voting 3rd party gets us stuck forever with the status quo. More and more people are realizing that now.
You can tell a green vote is a wasted vote because the gre
ens would have had there ballot signature petitions at the office on the morning of the first day that those offices first accepted ballot signature petitions.
greens don't have there shit together.
Vote Trump.
You can tell a Trump partisan
because they can't spell and their grammar is horrible. Is your mission as a paid troll to herd Greens to Trump? Good luck with that.
