Green Party will not appear on Nevada's ballot in November. [View all]
The Nevada Supreme Court barred the Green Party from the states November general election ballot, overturning a lower court ruling in the partys favor.
In June the Nevada State Democratic Party filed a lawsuit alleging the Nevada Green Party submitted invalid signatures to appear on Nevadas ballot. A District Court judge ruled against the Democratic Party, concluding that it failed to show that the Green Party did not comply with the petition requirements.
The Nevada Supreme Court in a 5-2 ruling on Friday reversed the lower courts decision and ruled that the Nevada Green Party did not comply with the requirements for minority parties appear on the ballot.
Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein blasted the decision in a statement, calling it a win for Democrats war on democracy and criticized Democratic Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar.
