EDIT: I should clarify, by Jill Stein, I mean what her party’s official platform and policies are, as reflected by her statements in interviews

    I think you underestimate how many don’t vote because neither party offers them something worth voting for. A huge percentage of US Americans don’t vote, yet polling for progressive policies always polls better.

    By going progressive you aren’t convincing the rare swing voter, but the massive number of disaffected voters. These aren’t far-left, but disenfranchised from the entire system.
