Jill Stein On Hawaii Ballot

The Green Party candidate is also running against Clinton and Trump, as well as Johnson and a fifth presidential candidate.

Sunday night’s presidential debate between Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump no doubt has some voters wishing there was an alternative choice.

There is. Three, actually.

Earlier this year I noted how Libertarian Gary Johnson had qualified to be on Hawaii’s ballot. He and running mate Bill Weld are on the ballots of all 50 states.

Well, Green Party candidate Jill Stein is also on the ballot. She and running vice presidential candidate Ajamu Baraka are on 44 ballots.

There is also a fifth choice: Darrell Castle and Scott Bradley. They are the ticket for the Constitutional Party.

Some argue that America needs a third viable political party to move away from the domination of elephants and donkeys.

Others argue that a vote for a third party is a wasted vote likely to help or hurt either an elephant or a donkey.

And some are considering Canadian citizenship ever more appealing.
