Green Party will not appear on Nevada's ballot in November.

The Nevada Supreme Court barred the Green Party from the state’s November general election ballot, overturning a lower court ruling in the party’s favor.

In June the Nevada State Democratic Party filed a lawsuit alleging the Nevada Green Party submitted invalid signatures to appear on Nevada’s ballot. A District Court judge ruled against the Democratic Party, concluding that it failed to show that the Green Party did not comply with the petition requirements.

The Nevada Supreme Court in a 5-2 ruling on Friday reversed the lower court’s decision and ruled that the Nevada Green Party did not comply with the requirements for minority parties appear on the ballot.

Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein blasted the decision in a statement, calling it a “win for Democrats’ war on democracy” and criticized Democratic Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar.

Putin’s bee-atch shouldn’t be running for dog catcher, much less the leader of the world’s largest superpower.
