            I didn’t either–I voted Green–but the state I lived in at the time went solidly for Clinton.

            i voted for jill stein, too, and my state went to trump. i didn’t want him to win. i also didn’t want clinton to win. that’s why i didn’t vote for either of them.

            jill stein wasn’t a spoiler: she was the candidate i wanted to win.

        There’s an entirely other way of reading that data, which is to say that Hillary could have picked up 30,000 more votes in Wisconsin if she had been a better candidate and run a better campaign.
