No. The electoral college determines who gets the most votes.
There's literally no candidate besides trump and Harris who are on ballots in enough states to win the election.
This is not a hypothetical.
Even if we had Gordon Bombay and literally baby Jesus just brought back to life as those candidates.

There are only two candidates for president registered and on ballots in enough states to mathematically wing the US presidency.
Literally any vote that isn't for one of them is at most a protest vote that means as much as leaving it blank.
I get it, I know it sucks, but one month before the election that's the way it is.
The chance for anyone else has passed, were lucky it's not still Biden.
Jill stein has more than 270 possible electoral votes. Since you started off with an easily disproven lie, I'll ignore the rest of your "woe is me, guess I'll have to vote for genocide and ecocide" nonsense.
Are you counting states where you can write in a party or something?
I could be wrong, but I tried to search and didn't find a result that flat out said, her website looked like, but was including states you could write in "green party" or some weird stuff
The green party via Jill Stein is on ballot for a total of 437 electoral votes (I hadn't checked since they hit 270, in May.) this does not include the additional 74 electoral votes from states with only write in ballot access.
