McKinney won Green Party primaries in Arkansas and Illinois and is in slightly trailing Nader in Massachusetts, according to the Green Party. The party reported there were voting irregularities Illinois, where some voters reported there were no Green Party ballots at some locations..

1. I think I'd have preferred McKinney. At least I trust her sincerity.
As for the Green Party, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
