Jill Stein delays rally after landing in wrong Ohio city

An Ohio rally for Jill Stein was delayed Friday when the Green Party White House nominee flew to the wrong city.

The presidential long shot accidentally flew to Cincinnati instead of Columbus, where she had been scheduled to speak at Capital University. The school's branch of the Green Party confirmed the mixup to The Columbus Dispatch.

The school group told the paper she'd be about two hours late — the drive between the two cities is just under two hours.

Stein sits far below the 15 percent polling threshold to make it to the general election debate stage later this month. She hasn't hit higher than 6 percent in a major national poll since June...

I was scheduled to speak at a conference in Australia. For some reason, I thought it was Sydney, but it was way up in Brisbane.
