A Michigan judge has ruled that far-left candidate Cornel West must be allowed to appear on the state’s presidential ballot.
Despite the best efforts of Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, Judge James Robert Redford ruled that election officials were “ordered to qualify” West and his running mate, Melina Abdullah, as presidential candidates in Michigan.
The effort was celebrated by the Fair Election Fund, which seeks to expose fraud and malpractice across nationwide elections, who announced that Benson’s voter suppression efforts were just overturned in a win for democracy and a loss for Democrats.

During the Michigan primary earlier this year, over 100,000 voters were “non-committed,” a defacto vote against then-candidate Joe Biden. It is unclear what proportion of those voters will vote for Harris in November.
Following Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s decision to drop out the race and endorse Donald Trump, the only remaining third-party candidate is the Green Party’s Jill Stein, who is standing on a largely anti-war platform.
