Green Party’s Jill Stein Flies To Wrong Ohio City For Rally

But there seemed to some miscommunication because the Capital University Greens Student Organization told The Dispatch that Stein flew into Cincinnati, which is about 2 hours away by vehicle. “Things happen”, Aaron Suarez, who is president of Capital University Greens Student Organization, told The Columbus Dispatch.

A Green Party rally planned at Capital University in Bexley, Ohio ran into a major problem on Friday after its presidential nominee accidentally flew to the wrong city.

In fairness, she’s only leaving about a 100 people waiting on the campus lawn and surely they can keep themselves busy with hackey sacks. The school’s branch of the Green Partyconfirmed the mixup to The Columbus Dispatch.

In four-way national polls with Republican Donald Trump, Democrat Hillary Clinton and Libertarian Gary Johnson, Stein is receiving about 3-% support. It’s unclear how many of them planned on waiting around for her to make the two-hour drive, pizzas or no. Stein received 0.3% of the vote in OH when she ran in 2012, slightly worse than she did nationally.

Stein, a physician and environmental-health advocate, also was the party’s presidential candidate in 2012, receiving 17,860 votes in OH (0.3%) and 469,501 (0.4%) nationally. She’s due to speak at a Cincinnati rally on Sunday.
