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.

Same time next Presidential election, Jill?

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 51 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I mean she could use the time between to build local support for the Green Party in lots of places. I guess that isn't what she's after.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 30 points 2 months ago

And God forbid they spend any money on local elections where they can affect things like I don't know actual green party issues.

Sure usually hangs out in Russia between elections, right?

More's the pity, she can't run for president of Russia either.

while normally I'd be upset if they were running somebody with some kind of real intent to push real issues, its clear Stein is mostly isnt interested in pushing anything but conspiracy theories and russian appeasement.

But if we don't vote 3rd party then democrats will never do the exact things I want, or some shit

Oh dear, that’s going to make her path to an electoral college victory harder, isn’t it.

[–] PrettyFlyForAFatGuy@feddit.uk 25 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Why can’t these candidates file proper forms? What the hell is so difficult about that?

[–] tal@lemmy.today 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

There are a miniscule number of presidential candidates running in a given year, so I assume that the UX on the process isn't very optimized.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 40 points 2 months ago

but she's done this like 3 times already.

The petition forms were faulty. Be nice if we were told what was wrong with them

She seemed like a good alternative to Trump and Clinton at the time. But looking back I realize she was just put there by Putin to draw away lesser evil votes from Clinton so Trump could win. Another reason the Democratic Party fucked up by not allowing centrist or leftist candidates like Sanders even when they'd have a way better chance of winning by getting a lot of people to actually vote because they'd have a candidate they like rather than just voting against the other guy.

I kind of wish ap would include things like this:

https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/092024zr_h3cj.pdf

In this case it's almost nothing, but sometimes it's nice to have for the longer documents. I'd also like a link to the original decision they were appealing.
