The Nevada Democratic Party asked a Carson City court to invalidate the signatures gathered by the Green Party, which it argued do not meet the state's requirements.
The Nevada Democratic Party is seeking to invalidate the Green Party’s effort to land on the state’s November ballot, arguing it did not gather enough valid signatures to gain ballot access.
The Green Party has not been on a Nevada general election ballot since 2008, when its candidate received around 1,400 votes. Including a qualified minor party on the ballot — one potentially able to pull dissatisfied left-leaning voters away from the Democratic Party — could have major impacts on the presidential race in Nevada, where President Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in 2020 by only about 33,000 votes out of more than a million cast.
The Green Party gathered nearly 30,000 petition signatures to land on the general election ballot, well more than the required amount of 10,095 signatures, which must be split evenly across Nevada’s four congressional districts. The party announced Monday that “as of this moment, the Nevada Green Party is on the Ballot.” The party has not submitted a candidate yet for the November ballot, but the party's former presidential candidate Jill Stein is running again this year. Stein called the lawsuit “outrageous” in a video posted to her campaign website.
Lawyers representing the Nevada Democratic Party filed public records requests to review the Green Party’s submitted signatures and petition, but the lawsuit said they had only received a handful of signatures and no copies of the petition.
“We have filed this challenge to preserve our rights to inspect the petitions consistent with Nevada state law,” Hilary Barrett, the executive director of the Nevada Democratic Party, said in a statement.
Stein is a Russian asset. While this set of actions may superficially seem a bit sketchy; this problem really shouldn’t need to be addressed in the first place.
I think any 3rd party that can be used by Russia and China to harm candidates for US office will receive funding, favorable news from state media, etc. from Russia and China whether those 3rd party candidates know it or not.
Top 3 links showing zero monetary or other link between Jill Stein and Russia. . Only liberals grasping at straws to blame someone else for Hillary throwing the 2016 elections. Gotta keep the right wing propaganda flowing
I provided with you the means to read several articles and you read none of them. You’re the horse that stands next to the river and dies of thirst; shortly after shitting into the river.
You have proof, post it, directly. Its not a game of hide and seek. If you are so confident it exists, provide a direct link and stop playing games about it like a right winger.
I'm expecting you to back up your claims. You know, like a normal person does when they do such.
You spent more time bitching and moaning about having to back up your claims, and finding nebulous links and basically screaming "DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH" than you would have spent providing verifiable proof of them.. If you had the proof you were claiming you had to back up your statement.
So you have no problem with effort. You just have a problem with telling the truth and arguing in good faith, which fits well with your use of right wing tactics.
First off, fuck you, I owe you nothing. Both yourself and the other person are really not important enough to me to spend time on a Saturday on this, but here if this will get you to shut up…
You can say whichever you want, this is the internet where people say shit all the time.
Just preferably bring evidence better than "person A is helping person B". In a complicated world that usually just means person A benefits somehow.
An asset or a plant is a stronger claim though, it implies control. While that's really fun when you're young and looking through all the conspiracy theories, it doesn't stand up well to adult level scrutiny, where details matter.
Yes, I am sure he is. Or at least was until he stopped the bomb shipments over Rafah. That does not imply espionage though, just a US President supporting a military ally in a genocide. For the 500th time in our history.
edit: I'll remind you how we treated our own Native Americans, incidentally, in our own dark past. Many of the few remaining, still to this day, live in crippling poverty. World is a complicated place.
Oh sure, my comment was referring to the other guy you were responding to. Who claimed that finding any vague relations to Jill Stein means she is a 'Russian Asset'.
Those extreme hyperboles can far more easily be applied to both Republicans and Democrats when it comes to israel
Wasn’t that you saying you aren’t posting in here anymore? This doesn’t help your credibility at all, especially when you cast aspersions at others.
Of course, the amount of posts/comments you’ve had removed for misinformation doesn’t help much either…
Now, care to support your accusation that liberals are projecting corruption? What corruption specific to this conversation is being projected? And what liberals? Give up some names.
