Remember the people who were saying we should be nice to Jill Stein?

372. It could be any right wing group...but the money is coming from somewhere...and the Greens

took GOP money before.

ASHINGTON, D.C. -- Green Party organizers say that the flap over money given to a Green Party candidate for Washington state legislature by a Republican proves the flaws in our at-large voting system, and call the Democratic Party's response short-sighted and typically self-delusional about the danger Democrats face from Green 'spoilers.'

"Democrats have colluded with Republicans for decades in blocking third party and independent candidates, by maintaining anti-democratic at-large election systems and through ballot access laws designed by the major parties to give themselves a virtual monopoly on elections in many states," said David Cobb, general counsel for the Green Party of the United States. "So it's difficult for Greens to take seriously Democratic outrage when the system doesn't work to their advantage."

According to news reports published on August 8, Republicans contributed money to the campaign of Green candidate Young S. Han, who announced that the donation will be returned when he learned that it came from a GOP operative hoping that Han would pull votes away from the Democratic candidate. Republicans also recruited Michael Jepson, who had no prior connection with the Green Party, to run as a Green in a Seattle County race. Greens call this kind of manipulation inevitable in at-large elections.
