Sorry to ask this, but is Stein still relevant and why?

She can play spoiler in a swing state and hand victory to Trump.
Pretty obvious.

If she is this election's Ralph Nader, I hope someone pushes her off a cliff.

She might be. She's only about herself. She's only around to run for the Presidency, otherwise, nothing really comes out of her between campaigns.

A pac aligned with Trump has been financing robocalls in support of Stein, the thinking being any votes for Stein will come out of Harris' pot.
On very close races every vote matters.

The Green Party doesn't have one congressperson, senator and maybe not even state and local officials. They're not a serious party.
They should be working from the ground up. Locally, building the party as an American party.
Nope, they show up every 4 years and want Americans to give them the Presidency. Who can take them seriously?

How could she in good conscience allow this? It is beyond pathetic.

Maybe they just want to get their ideas into the national conversation. No one votes for the "Constitution" or "Federalist" Parties either, but they're out there.

I'm sure. But how little we expect of the party. How about starting local? How about building a party?
Why wouldn't they do that?

Maybe she'll listen to her Euro people and endorse Harris, or maybe not.

I agree. I don't understand how an election law can't be passed that states 'all elections for federal office (representatives, senators, president) are to get federal funding for any candidate that qualifies via petition/citizenship/residency'.
Any candidate that accepts funding from a PAC, lobby, donors, etc. must refund any prior received federal funds.

Probably so, but it wouldn't hurt.
I didn't even realize she was running. And I'm A Green. I doubt she'll get many votes.

I've heard of her, but I thought she gave up years ago to buck the system.
They get federal funding if they can get 5% of the vote. The US needs a viable third party. It would be great if the Green Party could build itself up and more jurisdictions would adopt Instant Runoff Voting so third parties could participate in the government. The 2-party system sucks scissors and is helping to take the country down.
But, NOT THIS YEAR.
Let me say that again. NOT THIS YEAR.
