Pa. counties can start printing mail ballots after state Supreme Court rules Cornel West can't join ballot
Pennsylvania counties can begin printing and distributing mail ballots after the Pennsylvania Department of State finalized the list of candidates who will appear on the ballot Monday.
Under state law, Monday was the first day counties could send ballots to voters but that work couldn’t start Monday morning as Cornel West’s attempt to be included on the ballot was still pending before the state Supreme Court.
Monday afternoon the state Supreme Court upheld a lower court decision that West, who had sought to run for president as a member of the “Justice for All” party, could not be included on November’s ballot.
The Pennsylvania Department of State rejected his candidacy because of missing paperwork, a decision the court affirmed.
