Election officials keep Green Party presidential candidate on Wisconsin ballot
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin elections officials dismissed a Democratic National Committee employee’s demands Friday to remove the Green Party’s presidential candidate from the ballot in the key swing state. DNC employee David Strange filed a complaint with the Wisconsin Elections Commission on Wednesday asking the commission to remove Jill Stein from the presidential ballot. The election commission’s attorney, Angela O’Brien Sharpe, wrote to Strange on Friday saying she had dismissed the complaint because it names commissioners as respondents and they can’t ethically decide a matter brought against them. DNC spokesperson Adrienne Watson said late Friday afternoon that the committee plans to file a lawsuit seeking a court ruling that Stein’s name can’t appear on the ballot. The Stein campaign didn’t immediately respond to a message sent to their media email inbox. The bipartisan elections commission unanimously approved ballot access for Stein in February because the Green Party won more than 1% of the vote in a statewide race in 2022. Sheryl McFarland got nearly 1.6% of the vote while finishing last in a four-way race for secretary of state.
