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.
Oh dear, that’s going to make her path to an electoral college victory harder, isn’t it.
She has 49 other states she can fail to win in…
but still siphon enough votes to hand trump the whitehouse
I feel like she isn’t on the ballot in a large number of states. I feel like basic research would reveal this fact. I feel like she isn’t going to siphon many votes away from Harris. I know for sure that people want to be able to blame her if Harris loses.
She doesnt need to pull that many votes from the Dems, the race is on a knife edge pretty much everywhere.
She’s also on the ballot in 39 states, which includes all of the battle ground states except nevada
270 to win!
Not realistically, no. It’s just about the same amount of difficulty.
