Jill Stein, 2024 Green Party presidential candidate, responded to accusations that her 2016 campaign helped Donald Trump by taking votes from Hillary Clinton.

In an interview with MVP, Stein countered that Green Party voters are not taken from other parties but are new, engaged voters. She emphasized that the premise of the accusation is flawed and that the Green Party’s role is to invigorate voter participation and support the U.S. election process, not to detract from other candidates. Stein’s comments also address concerns related to 2024 elections and reaffirm her stance on voter rights.
