Down-Ballot, Green Party Grows in Reach and in Votes

Contrary to the notion according to which the Green Party robustly campaigns only for president, I assembled this incomplete list of contenders who -- in elections that ended on Nov. 8 -- drew at least 5% of the vote.  (See similar lists from recent years.)  Unless otherwise indicated, these are nominees of solely the said party.  Because full tabulation of ballots often takes weeks or months, some percentages below may not be final.
