Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein announced this week that she has completed almost all the criteria to be placed on Pennsylvania’s 2024 election ballot. The move could create issues for President Biden’s re-election campaign in a state that is widely viewed as a must win.

Stein’s campaign told the Washington Examiner that her campaign is just a couple hundred signatures away from reaching the 5,000 signature threshold required to appear on Pennsylvania’s general election ballot. With the deadline slated for August 1, the Green Party candidate’s campaign is well on its way to gaining ballot access.

Alex Casper, the Green Party’s secretary in Pennsylvania, told the Washington Examiner that third-party candidates attempting to gain ballot access in the Keystone State have faced scrutiny in the past. In order to ensure that Stein appears on the ballot, her campaign is shooting to get 10,000 signatures in order to stay well clear of the margin of error.

“We are confident that if we keep our volunteer efforts strong that we will be on the ballot this time. We need all our boots on the ground to take down the duopoly’s regime at the ballot,” Casper told the outlet.

The Green Party qualified for Pennsylvania’s general election ballot in 2012 and 2016, though they fell short of requirements in 2020. Stein received 49,941 votes in Pennsylvania’s 2016 election, a state then-Democrat nominee Hilary Clinton lost by 44,292 votes.

In the aftermath of the race, Clinton appeared bitter over Stein’s candidacy and insinuated that she helped to ensure President Donald Trump’s victory. President Biden won the state — which he often claims as his home state — by just 1.2 percent in 2020.

The Democrat Party is taking challenges from third-party candidates such as Stein and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. very seriously, however. To that end, the DNC has enlisted the efforts of top strategists Ramsey Reid, Mary Beth Cahill, and Lis Smith in order to attempt to keep third-party candidates off the ballot.

“Nobody steals votes in a democracy except those who seek to keep others off the ballot (as Democrats have proudly stated they are trying to do),” Stein campaign manager Jason Call said in a statement to Newsmax.

“Votes are not owed, they are earned. We don’t owe Joe Biden anything, especially not while he is funding a genocide. Democrats and Republicans treat our political system like a cartel. Voters are tired of this constant manipulation on behalf of the corporations the duopoly parties both work for.”
