If we’re talking about Jill Stein specifically, the Green Party presidential candidate, I think it’s a bit more of a fair comparison.
For third parties to really have a chance we need to pass ballot initiatives for a new voting system. This gets around the Spoiler Effect that current happens in our First Past the Post system. I’m all for third parties being viable since that would actually pressure Democrats to be more progressive or they risk losing to progressives.
For states with ballot initiatives, that sounds practical. Back when I lived in CT we voted against having ballot initiatives for 20 years. I didn’t want to be unrepresented for 20 years, so I moved to CA.
