while this article is a few weeks old already this is a real problem. It was mostly democrats that fought to get green party disqualified from ballots in many states for minor paperwork violations. They are only going to be on the ballot in 30 states this year. They only got 1.1% of the vote in 2016 but the democrats are pulling out all the stops this year to make sure they win even if it means disenfranchising voters

There’s been more recent cases in different states it’s disgusting there trying to stop people from voting

Can you explain why the Green Party should get a pass on deadlines when every other party put effort into meeting them?

that is not why they are being removed from the ballot. There is organized effort to get them removed from the ballot. They are calling people who signed to get the green party on the ballot and getting them to withdrawal their signatures. In one state they got the paperwork invalidated because the green party VP moved addresses and so some forms have one address and some forms have another.

Because they are fake signatures or the signee was mislead.

You realize the GOP is propping up the Green Party and "getting" signatures for them, right?

There were addendums to file to address this. They didn't file the addendums.

Whatever the reason the green party is able to get on the ballot they should be allowed. People want to vote for them. They got over 1% support last election. Over a million people voted for Jill Stein in the last election. People should have the right to vote for Howie Hawkins if they want

This two party bullshit is never going to end if you make excuses for why other parties should not be on the ballot

Green is a republican proxy party. The GOP paid 6 figures to have them on the ballot in one state alone and splitting the left vote
