Green Party Survives Dems’ Ballot Challenge In Battleground State – Kamala Shudders

“..we will offer an anti-genocide, pro-worker, climate action choice for Silver State voters!” ~Jill Stein

For a party that’s constantly crowing about the need to save Our Democracy, the Democrats have been working awfully hard to limit Americans’ choices in November.  Happily, Democrats’ drive to exclude the Green Party from the ballot in the battleground state of Nevada was defeated on Monday — sending shudders through Democrats who blame Green presidential candidate Jill Stein for enabling Donald Trump’s 2016 victory.

Stein, who’s back at it in 2024, wasn’t even on the Nevada ballot when Trump upset Hillary Clinton that year. However, Democrats point to Stein’s share in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan — which was larger than the margin by which Clinton lost those pivotal Rust Belt states. 

The Democrats’ challenge to the Green Party’s ballot-access petition questioned the validity of the signatures the Greens had collected. Carson County District Court Judge Kristin Luis shot the challenge down, saying “The Democratic Party has not met its burden of demonstrating that the petition is clearly invalid because it has not produced sufficient evidence to show that the petition has less than the required number of valid signatures in any petition district.” Stein took to social media to celebrate, saying, “We are excited to say that the ruling has been made in our favor and we will offer an anti-genocide, pro-worker, climate action choice for Silver State voters!”

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
