DNC attacks Jill Stein in new ad claiming that a vote for the Green Party candidate is a vote for Donald Trump.
Stein is only polling near 1 percent in most polls, but Harris advisers fear even that margin could prove decisive in race against Trump.
Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s office disqualified the Green Party presidential nominee after getting a withdrawal letter from Stein’s running mate. But Stein’s campaign claims the letter was written behind the candidate’s back.
The ad comes as the Harris campaign has repeatedly accused Stein of being “propped up” by Republicans in an attempt to swing the election in Trump’s favor.
The ad cites reporting out of the Wall Street Journal that says Republicans are boosting Stein and quotes Trump saying he likes Jill Stein.
Stein has been a perennial candidate who also ran on the Green Party ticket in 2016 and 2012. Her campaign has focused on opposition to U.S. support for Israel in its brutal war in Gaza, calling it a “genocide” and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “war criminal.”
Not only is she helping Trump win—she’s destroying a once-noble party that could be doing good in this country.
