  • Georgia puts Cornel West, Jill Stein and Claudia De la Cruz on the state's presidential ballots

  • Georgia voters are likely to be able to choose from six candidates for president

ATLANTA -- Georgia voters are likely to be able to choose from six candidates for president after Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on Thursday put Cornel West and Claudia De la Cruz back on the ballot and ruled that the Green Party's Jill Stein had qualified by another route.


  • A Georgia judge’s rulings barring third parties from the presidential ballot reflect strategic efforts by both major parties to maintain control.

A Georgia judge ruled that several independent and third-party candidates failed to qualify for the 2024 presidential ballot this week. The decisions were in response to lawsuits filed by the Georgia Democratic Party challenging the four candidacies, while Republicans threw legal support behind keeping one of them — a socialist — on the ballot. 


MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein will remain on the ballot in the crucial swing state of Wisconsin after the state Supreme Court decided on Monday not to hear a Democratic challenge seeking to oust her.

Democrats are concerned that third-party candidates could draw votes away from Vice President Kamala Harris and help Republican Donald Trump win Wisconsin. The presence of independent and third party candidates on the ballot could be a deciding factor in a state where four of the last six presidential elections have been decided by between 5,700 votes and about 23,000 votes.

  • Barring Democrat shenanigans, Jill Stein should see her name in November

The Nevada Globe is reporting that The Green Party has submitted more than 20,000 signatures statewide, about twice the number required to qualify for the ballot in 2024. If the process holds up to the harsh scrutiny that will surely be directed her way — expect Democratic partisans to fight and nail against the inclusion of the Green Party candidate—then Jill Stein, the party’s nominee in 2012 and 2016 will face Silver State voters in 2024.
