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.
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.
I'll be voting solid blue regardless, but the "exact things I want" in regards to Democrats is not helping a genocide, because I thought that was a bar even they could pass.
I'm not surprised they failed even that, but it does radicalize me further and solidify my position that all liberals that call themselves leftists out of rampant ignorance can fuck off forever.
Considering there is not a good argument for voting for a third party presidential candidate in this election vs. not voting at all, I don't think the summary matters.
Stein is pro-vaccine, as she has stated in numerous interviews. If she had won in 2016, we would've had a medical doctor in the White House during a pandemic, and hundreds of thousands of lives could've been saved.
