During a recent hearing, Georgia Supreme Court justices expressed doubts about whether votes for presidential candidates Cornel West and Claudia De la Cruz should be counted, potentially leading to their disqualification from the state's ballots. The issue arose as Democrats sought to prevent these candidates from drawing votes away from Vice President Kamala Harris.
The argument centers around the contention that West and De la Cruz did not meet the ballot access requirements in Georgia. Specifically, it was noted that their presidential electors failed to submit individual petitions with the necessary 7,500 signatures each. Instead, only one petition per candidate was submitted.
