SANTA BARBARA, Calif.—It’s a movement that’s gaining momentum.
“For decent wages, for housing that we can afford. Right now, one out of every two Americans can barely keep a roof over their head, you know.
So we are we have a great advantage if we can only be heard,” said Green Party Presidential Candidate Dr. Jill Stein.
The Green Party is fighting a huge uphill battle, but the say they’re adamant about winning the war—through peace, advocacy, and a fair election.
Jill Stein says voters need to be informed who their choices are, and need to realize that a third party option is possible for the future of democracy.
“ A Gallup poll showed the numbers are at an all time record high right now at 63% of Americans who are calling for an alternative, a political party that can actually serve the public interest instead of these parties that are bought and paid for by the 1%. So the demand is growing,” said Dr. Stein.
But it’s not an even playing field.
Unlike the Democratic and Republican Parties, the Green party hasn’t accepted any Political Action Committee money. They are funded entirely by the people.
