Seventh Circuit Won’t Reconsider Indiana Ballot Access Case

On September 23, the Seventh Circuit refused to reconsider its August decision in Indiana Green Party v Morales, 23-2756. The issue was the number of signatures needed for statewide independent candidates, and the nominees of unqualified parties. No such petition had succeeded since 2000, except that in 2024, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s petition had also succeeded.

Indiana is one of only three states in which the Green Party presidential nominee has never appeared on the ballot. The others are Oklahoma and South Dakota.

  1. Not shocked, but still quite disappointed. Hoping to see the Green Party on our ballot at some point.

    Proudly voting for Claudia De la Cruz here, as she’s at least a certified write-in option. Hoping that all Stein supporters here follow suit, though Cornel West (also a certified write-in here) may also attract some of them.
