Jill Stein received two votes in Loving County, Texas, making it one of her strongest counties, even outperforming Gary Johnson's one vote. LOL! She almost surpassed Clinton's four votes, which would have led to ill-concealed glee among the Bernie Bros.

Who are those two Greenies in this archconservative county? What induced them to give her their votes?

It is somewhat eccentric and also has (or had) a lot of overseas voters in places like San Miguel de Allende. Perot carried the county in 1992. In 2000 it had 211 registered voters in a county with 67 persons, and 156 of them voted. Somewhat embarrassed by that, the voting rolls have been contracted to around 100. There might have been a protest against the Trans-Pecos Pipeline.

In a Democratic vs. Green in a State Board of Education race, it was 24:18, with Republicans crossing over to vote against the Democrat.

I'm guessing those are the two Green party supporters there.
