The Supreme Court has rejected an emergency appeal from Nevada’s Green Party seeking to include presidential candidate Jill Stein on the ballot in the battleground state.

The court’s order Friday, without any noted dissents, allows ballot preparation and printing to proceed in Nevada without Stein and other Green Party candidates included.

The outcome is a victory for Democrats who had challenged the Greens’ inclusion on the ballot in a state with a history of extremely close statewide races. In 2020, President Joe Biden outpaced former President Donald Trump by fewer than 35,000 votes in the state.

    I really like Saunders, but big-C capitalists hate him because he actually works for the people. And that’s why he’ll never be POTUS or VP.

    :/

      Right and it’s why well never have a left of center candidate at all unless we get money out of politics. Which is not going to happen in the US. We’re stuck with moderate conservatives like Biden and Harris as the only option south of fascism.
