Question: Before Jill Stein, who became the first woman in 1988 to receive more votes for President in a US general election than any other woman?
Context: Jill Ellen Stein (born May 14, 1950) is an American physician, activist, and politician.  She was the Green Party's nominee for President of the United States in the 2012 and 2016 elections.  She was an unsuccessful candidate for governor of Massachusetts in 2002 and 2010. Following Republican nominee Donald Trump's presumed electoral college victory in the United States presidential election of 2016, a group of computer scientists, cyber security experts, and election monitors raised concerns about the integrity of the election results.  They urged the campaign staff of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, who had conceded the campaign on November 9, to petition for a recount in three key states: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.  When the Clinton campaign declined to file for recounts, Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein agreed to spearhead the recount effort on November 23, on the grounds that unspecified "anomalies" may have affected the election's outcome.  The Clinton team subsequently pledged to support the recount efforts "in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides."  President-elect Trump and his supporters filed legal motions in all three states to prevent the recounts.  Two other states were the subject of recount bids that were separate from Stein's efforts in the Rust Belt states: American Delta Party/Reform Party presidential candidate Rocky De La Fuente filed for a partial recount in Nevada on November 30, and three Florida citizens filed for a complete hand recount in their state on December 6. Lenora Branch Fulani (born April 25, 1950) is an American psychologist, psychotherapist, and political activist.  She may be best known for her presidential campaigns and development of youth programs serving minority communities in the New York City area.  In the United States presidential election, 1988 heading the New Alliance Party ticket, she became the first woman and the first African American to achieve ballot access in all fifty states.  She received more votes for President in a U.S. general election than any other woman in history until Jill Stein of the Green Party of the United States in 2012.  Fulani's political concerns include racial equality, gay rights and for the past decade, political reform, specifically to encourage third parties. The 2012 presidential campaign of Jill Stein was announced on October 24, 2011.  Jill Stein, a physician from Massachusetts, gave indication in August 2011 that she was considering running for President of the United States with the Green Party in the 2012 national election.  She wrote in a published questionnaire that she had been asked to run by a number of Green activists and felt compelled to consider the possibility after the U.S. debt-ceiling crisis which she called "the President’s astounding attack on Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid – a betrayal of the public interest." Clement Richard Attlee, 1st Earl Attlee, {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (3 January 1883 – 8 October 1967) was a British Labour politician who served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1945 to 1951 and Leader of the Labour Party from 1935 to 1955.  In 1940, Attlee took Labour into the wartime coalition government and served under Winston Churchill, becoming the first person to hold the office of Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.  He went on to lead the Labour Party to an unexpected landslide victory at the 1945 general election; forming the first Labour majority government, and a mandate to implement its postwar reforms.  The 12.0% national swing from the Conservatives to Labour was unprecedented at that time and remains the largest ever achieved by any party at a general election in British electoral history.  He was re-elected with a narrow majority at the 1950 general election.  In the following year, Attlee called a snap general election, hoping to increase his parliamentary majority.  However, he was narrowly defeated by the Conservatives under the leadership of Winston Churchill; despite winning the most votes of any political party in any general election in British political history until the Conservative Party's fourth consecutive victory in 1992.  Attlee remains the longest-ever serving Leader of the Labour Party. Dame Doris Sands Johnson DBE (19 June 192121 June 1983) was a Bahamian teacher, suffragette, and politician.  She was the first Bahamian woman to contest an election in the Bahamas, the first female Senate appointee, and the first woman granted a leadership role in the Senate.  Once in the legislature, she was the first woman to be made a government minister and then was elected as the first woman President of the Senate.  She was the first woman to serve as Acting Governor General of the Bahamas, and was honored as Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II. The 1950 United Kingdom general election was the first ever general election to be held after a full term of a Labour government.  The election was held on Thursday 23 February 1950.  Despite polling over 1,500,000 votes more than the Conservatives, and receiving more votes than they had during the 1945 general election, Labour obtained a slim majority of just five seats — a stark contrast to 1945, when they had achieved a comfortable 146-seat majority.  There was a national swing towards the Conservatives, whose performance in terms of popular vote was dramatically better than in 1945, which helps to explain Labour's slim majority.  Labour called another general election in 1951. John James Cole (died 24 May 1959) was an Irish politician, farmer and auctioneer.  He was first elected to Dáil Éireann as an independent Teachta Dála (TD) for the Cavan constituency at the 1923 general election.  He lost his seat at the June 1927 general election but regained it at the September 1927 general election.  He again lost his seat at the 1932 general election and was an unsuccessful candidate at the 1933 general election.  He was elected again at the 1937 general election and was re-elected at the 1938 and 1943 general elections.  He again lost his seat at the 1944 general election and was an unsuccessful candidate at the 1948, 1951, 1954 and 1957 general elections. The 2016 presidential campaign of Jill Stein, was announced on June 22, 2015.  Jill Stein, a physician from Massachusetts, was the presidential nominee of the Green Party of the United States for President in 2016 and 2012.  In 2012, Stein was the Green Party's nominee and received 469,627 votes for President of the United States in the 2012 general election. C. Richard Fiore (July 18, 1931 – July 12, 2003) was an American Republican Party politician who served two terms in the New Jersey General Assembly.  Fiore(along with Ralph R. Caputo) was elected as a Republican to the State Assembly in 1967, defeating Eugene Molinaro and Warren Davis in the Republican primary and Democratic incumbents Armand Lembo and Joseph Biancardi.  They represented Essex County's District 11C.  Fiore and Caputo were re-elected in 1969 against Democrats Carmen Orechio and Joseph Iannuzzi.  Fiore lost his bid for a third term in 1971, losing a multi-candidate General Election.  The winners were Independent Anthony Imperiale and Democrat Frank G. Megaro, who received 13,857 and 12,436 votes, respectively.  Defeated were incumbent Democratic Assemblyman Paul Policastro (10,825 votes), Fiore (8,215 votes), Republican Ralph D'Ambola (7,351 votes), Independent Ronald J. Del Mauro (3,323 votes), and independent Nicholas A. Ciufi II (2,729 votes).  Fiore became the Republican nominee for State Senator in 1973, running for an open seat in the newly created 30th district, which comprised Newark's East Ward, and Harrison and Kearny in Hudson County.  Imperiale, running as an Independent, won that Senate race with 24,756 votes (49%), against Democrat Gregory J. Castano with 18,286 votes (36%) and Fiore, with 7,131 votes (14%).
