He won’t see this because he blocked me, but he’s either intentionally lying or using an inaccurate source. There are currently only 142 Greens in elected office in the US. No federal positions, eight state positions (though most were not elected as Greens), and the rest have been local/municipal elections.
Wikipedia seems to be using this website for it’s source on that, and perplexity gave a quick break down of the positions, which I’d sum up as “City councils, library and school boards and stuffs.”
In any case, I’m not sure if gpeletions are owned/affiliated with the green party directly. but yeah. I can’t find a single person in the CA state assembly or senate that’s not DFL/GOP.
edit: also, looking at wikipedia, it seems that the 8 state holders are all former office holders. There’s no currently seated green party members at the state level.
edit 2: gpelections seems to be part of the green party’s official set of websites. (if you go to gp.org, which is the green party official site, and click ‘officeholders’, it takes you to gpelections.org)
My take after interacting with him is that he’s taking pleasure in dancing around the rules of the community and being “technically correct” in adhering to the rules, while instigating heated discussions in others. With how often he brings up the civility rule I also wouldn’t be surprised if he takes pleasure in manoeuvring others into overstepping and consequently reporting them.
I don’t personally believe he’s following the “good faith discussion” rule since he’s demonstrated repeated refusal to consider facts (such as his personal “belief” that the spoiler effect doesn’t exist), but I’m not a mod here.

The way he keeps changing his name, I’d say he’s intentionally lying.
