Independent presidential candidate Cornel West has successfully submitted signatures to qualify for the ballot in Wisconsin, a crucial battleground state for the upcoming presidential election in November.
West's campaign announced that they have surpassed the required 2,000 signatures to secure a spot on the ballot as an independent candidate in Wisconsin. Although the exact number of signatures collected was not disclosed by the campaign, they have met and exceeded the necessary threshold.
The Wisconsin Election Commission confirmed that West's campaign submitted the signatures before the deadline for independent candidates to apply for ballot access, demonstrating their commitment to meeting all regulatory requirements.
This strategic move in Wisconsin is part of a broader initiative by West's campaign to secure ballot access in key battleground states that are expected to play a significant role in determining the outcome of the November election. In addition to Wisconsin, West's campaign has been actively pursuing ballot access in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Nebraska, and Maine.
Currently, West is already on the ballot in five states, including South Carolina, Alaska, Vermont, Oregon, and Colorado. By expanding his presence on the ballot in various states, West aims to offer voters across the country the opportunity to consider an independent candidate in the upcoming election.
