The Green Party will appear on Nevada’s presidential ballot in November, a state judge ruled Monday, tossing out an appeal from state Democrats and setting up the potential for the third party to bleed votes from Vice President Harris.
The Green Party has not appeared on Nevada ballots since 2008. The party’s 2024 petition for ballot access was challenged by the state Democratic Party, which claimed that some of the submitted signatures were invalid.
Carson City District Court Judge Kristin Luis ruled Monday that the challenge was not enough to disqualify the Green Party from the ballot.
The ruling comes just two weeks before the filing deadline for third parties in Nevada.
The Green Party presence in Nevada could threaten what is expected to be a thin margin in the November election.

Hoping lefties see the greater good in voting for Harris
“After Bush, our turn”
Nevada and North Carolina seem very inelastic for some reason. Could definitely see this moving the needle, but NV is very very unlikely to be the tipping point state anyway
The people voting green would otherwise not vote. They are broadly useless people politically speaking but I don’t think it’ll be a spoiler.
Lets hope that RFK and Stein cancel each other out.
While I hope they don’t spoil the ticket, Greens have every right to be on the ballot. They met all the qualifications & it seems a bit undemocratic for Dems to be trying to use legal maneuvers to try to get them off the ballot.
