AHC: Governor Jill Stein

My challenge to you my fellow AHians, is to find a POD Post 2002, without her leaving the Green Party, to make her governor of Massachusetts.

Hmm.. Since she only got 3.5%, that'd be a bit difficult. Perhaps an easier political fight would be for Secretary of the Commonwealth; she got 18% for that race.

A Green win in the 2003 San Francisco mayoral election might be useful for her prospects post 2002 (since a Green win in such a large city would energize and recruit more Green voters across the nation), but I don't think anything can be done to let Jill Stein win as a Green. Maybe if Shannon O'Brien gets hit with a major scandal close to the election and the Democrats flock to Stein as a liberal alternative to Romney, Stein could at least get Democratic support. But in that case, she would lose badly to Romney. A second PoD with Romney getting hit with a career-ending scandal very close to the election might help Stein. Still unlikely, and I'd go with the Secretary of the Commonwealth and Green wins elsewhere route.
