Supreme Court Declines Emergency Order to Reinstate Jill Stein on Nevada Ballot

Sep 20, 2024, 02:38 PM

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined the Green Party's request for an emergency order to reinstate Jill Stein on Nevada's ballot for the upcoming November presidential election. This decision upholds a Nevada Supreme Court ruling that found state officials had directed the Green Party to use the wrong form, which was deemed an unfortunate mistake but not a constitutional violation. The ruling potentially benefits Democratic candidate Kamala Harris in this key battleground state, as it prevents Stein from appearing on the ballot. There were no noted dissents in the Supreme Court's decision.
