Well, for anyone that cares, she's been a promoter of ranked choice voting.
Cool she was also out here being a fucking vaccine skeptic while people died
i like her, but this is a legitimate criticism and not a whacked out conspiracy theory. i don't care to debate it, either. it's actually a very valid reason to dislike her and prefer that she not hold public office. it's not disqualifying for me, personally, but i can respect people who take this position on it. at least you aren't screaming about meaningless bullshit.
More a self-promoter than anything.
The hell do you think political campaigns are?
That probably sounded smart in your head, but it’s a different level when a judge rules against your ridiculous election challenge lawsuit while calling it "daft," "ill-considered," and "pointless.”
"Dr. Stein publicly announced that she seeks to promote election integrity," the judge continued. But really, he argued, "she seeks to promote only herself," adding that there was one other benefit from her litigation "that would not otherwise have been conferred: the payment of $150,000 to Stein's lawyers."
