Here are the top few questions, and the responses:

Hi Jill, thanks for doing this AMA. I have so many questions but first can you address this statement?

“We are not in a position to win the White House. But we do have a real opportunity to win something historic. We could deny Kamala Harris the state of MI. And the polls show that most likely Harris cannot win the election without MI.”

I mean it really, really sounds like your true intent is to get Trump into the White House. Which is weird because I thought the Green Party was for climate action and saving the the environment. Silly me.

Quick question, if you do succeed how do I look my legal immigrant wife in the eyes and tell her she may deported back to her home country simply for being the wrong skin color? Trump guaranteed that this is gonna happen if gets back in office so I really want to hear the mental gymnastics behind why you would cheerlead for this kind of misery.

If the intention of the Green Party is in fact to actually be a viable third party, then why is there virtually no effort made at growing power at levels below the presidency? There has not been an elected Green member of the House in years, there are only four mayors in the entire country and there are barely any city or student council members. Wouldn't focusing on lower stakes, winnable races be ultimately more efficient than doing nothing but running doomed campaigns?

Hi Lizuka, the vast majority of Green campaigns are down-ballot campaigns, mostly on the local level. Greens have won over 1500 elections, making the Green Party the most successful independent party in the country that doesn’t take corporate money.

Ballot access rules designed by the duopoly require the Green Party to run for president and other high offices - or lose ballot lines and the ability to run at all levels.

Roughly 60% of US voters believe the 2-party system doesn't represent us and we need a new party. We don't have a democracy unless voters have a right to choose at all levels of government.

How many of the 1,500 elections won were in the last decade? I've noticed that the green party has zero seats in the senate, zero seats in the house of Representatives, zero state governorships, 0 out of 1,972 seats in state upper chambers, 0 out of 5,411 state lower chambers, and the list goes on.

Why should the American people vote for the candidate of a party that is incompetent at getting elected to smaller divisions of government?

What did you discuss with Putin and Flynn at the infamous Moscow dinner photo?

Yes, she just so happened to get invited to attend the 10th anniversary of a Russian propaganda network, and just so happened to get put at Putin’s table with Michael Flynn, just before she just so happened to siphon enough votes away from Clinton to allow for a Trump victory.

Sure, Jill.

Bonus: If you live in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin or North Carolina, they'll let you claim a referral from Elon Musk's program, and take $47 away from him.

One year on, the evidence is overwhelming.

State constitutional rights to abortion are on the ballot in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Nevada, and South Dakota.

Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin have initiatives on the ballot to ban noncitizens from voting. It's already illegal, but the initiatives will probably be used to harass and disenfranchise minorities and activists, if they pass.

Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, D.C., Alaska, and Missouri will vote to adopt or prohibit ranked choice voting.

Alaska, California, Massachusetts, and Missouri will vote to adopt a $15-18 minimum wage.

And so on. Ballotpedia has a complete list.

Go register to vote, or check your registration if you've already registered.

The first wave of states, with their deadlines tomorrow, are:

• Alaska
• Arizona
• Arkansas
• Florida
• Georgia
• Indiana
• Kentucky
• Louisiana
• Mississippi
• New Mexico
• Ohio
• Rhode Island
• South Carolina
• Tennessee
• Texas

Register here: https://www.vote.org/

Edit: Even if you already registered, check your registration. The bad people have been deleting anyone they can. Even if you're not in a swing state, vote. Find an activist group (check !inperson@slrpnk.net) to join up with, in case something really bad happens. If you can, volunteer to help with the election.

Anything could happen this election.

Vote.

It's a couple of days old, but with the strike now coming due, I thought this was important:

A White House official on Thursday reiterated that President Joe Biden does not intend to invoke a federal law known as the Taft-Hartley Act to prevent a strike.

"We encourage all parties to come to the bargaining table and negotiate in good faith," the official said.

"Senior officials from the White House, Labor Department, and Department of Transportation are in touch with the parties and delivering the message to them directly."
