Jill Stein, a physician from Massachusetts, announced her entry into the 2024 United States presidential election on November 9, 2023. Stein had been the Green Party's presidential nominee in 2012 and in 2016. In 2012, she received 469,627 votes.[2] In the 2016 election, she received 1,457,216 votes (1.07% of the popular vote).[3]
In June 2023, Stein took on the role of campaign manager for the 2024 presidential campaign of activist and scholar Cornel West, who was then seeking the nomination of the Green Party.[4] Stein stepped down from this role and withdrew her support for West's campaign in October 2023, when West withdrew his candidacy for the Green presidential nomination and opted to instead continue his campaign as an independent. Stein then stated that she would assist the Green Party in finding a nominee elsewhere, while also hinting at a possible bid of her own.[5]
On November 9, 2023, Stein announced her third bid for president[6] on Twitter, citing her main priorities as taking an anti-war stance, promoting a Green New Deal, universal healthcare, and ending what she characterized as "genocide in Gaza".[7][8][9] Stein's campaign reportedly has the potential to erode Joe Biden's core support in the general election.[10][11]
On December 21, 2023, the Green Party secured ballot access in the swing state of Arizona.[12]
In January 2024, the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute showed Stein polling at 4% in the swing state of Pennsylvania,[13] where she received 0.37% and 0.81% of the vote during the 2012 and 2016 elections respectively.
Stein took part in a presidential debate hosted by the Free & Equal Elections Foundation on February 29, 2024, alongside Party for Socialism and Liberation nominee Claudia De la Cruz, fellow Green candidate Jasmine Sherman, and Libertarian candidates Chase Oliver and Lars Mapstead.[14][15]
Stein and two campaign staff members were among more than 80 individuals arrested by local police on April 27 at Washington University in St. Louis while protesting the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip as a part of the nationwide protests on university campuses. According to Stein on Twitter, she and the other protestors were held at the St. Louis County Jail until 2 a.m. the next day.[16] The university administration published a statement on the day of the arrest that protestors had intended to "set up a camp in violation of university policy" and "refused to leave after being asked multiple times," after which they were arrested by St. Louis Metro Police. All protestors will be charged with trespassing, while some may face charges of resisting arrest and assault, including Stein, who alleged that she was assaulted by an officer.[17] Stein criticized the university's handling of the protest, accusing the administration of violating their freedom of speech.[18]
The campaign announced on May 26 that it had accrued enough delegates to secure the nomination.[19][20]
Stein has yet to choose a running mate. Stein has reportedly considered offering the nomination to Dearborn, Michigan mayor Abdullah Hammoud, although he would be too young to be inaugurated as Vice President.[21]
