A coalition of Green Party chapters across Europe are telling Jill Stein to stand down.

Europe’s Green Party is telling third-party candidate Jill Stein to step aside for the sake of America and the world.
European Green Party representatives from Italy, Ireland, Spain, and 13 other countries across the continent came together to sign onto a letter asking the U.S. Green Party’s Stein to withdraw her candidacy and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris for the sake of democracy.

“Right now, the race for the White House is too close for comfort,” wrote the French and Austrian co-chairs of the coalition in a statement released Friday. “We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House.”

There is no longer any formal relationship between the U.S. Green Party and the European Greens across the pond, in part because of key differences in policy around Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, so the statement is just a plea rather than a binding resolution. In their letter, the Europeans highlighted the connection between Trump’s “authoritarianism” and his close relationships with right-wing leaders Viktor Orbán, Vladimir Putin, and Jair Bolsonaro, arguing that electing Trump would embolden anti-democratic actions around the globe.

Further, they also argued that by taking away votes from Harris and allowing a Trump win, Stein will not be able to help “bring about a just and sustainable peace in the Middle East,” an issue in which the U.S. Green Party candidate has staked her 2024 campaign upon.

In previous statements to The Guardian, U.S. Green Party spokespeople said they’ve been disappointed by the European Greens’ “silence and complicity” over Israel and Gaza, stating that the parties have “relied too much on US corporate news media” regarding the ongoing genocide.

Stein is polling at less than 2 percent nationally but may take home a larger share of the vote in battleground states like Michigan and Pennsylvania, where Arab and Muslim voters alongside others on the left have rallied around the call to cast a “conscience vote” against the U.S.-backed Israeli onslaught on Gaza.

Others, including Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, see Stein’s candidacy as a potential spoiler for the election. “All you do is show up once every four years to speak to people who are justifiably pissed off, but you’re just showing up once every four years to do that, you’re not serious,” said the congresswoman.

Heard about this on the radio Friday and looked it up. They know the USA green party is fraudulent at this point and hasn't been serious since Ralph Nader 24 years ago.

She is the perfect moralized vote where A. The voter knows it helps nothing and B. They hope it doesn't make things worse.

Let a couple of swing states lose by the same margin the Dems would have won based on those 3rd party votes and we will see.

"If the Dems are worried about the third party vote, thats their problem."

This I agree with in principle. In practice, if Stein was made President, she has zero coalition. Shes done no ground work and has no Green party allies already in positions to get her going. She would be in office talking all that good shyt while delivering nothing. Lets not even get into her being cozy with Putin, another guy who would be more than willing to genocide a people he started a war with.

All this moralizing is the problem. In the final hours, people are trying to play this game like we dont have white supremacists on the cusp of a chess move they worked 40+ years to set up:aicmon:
