Votes in Georgia for third-party presidential candidates Cornel West, an independent, and Claudia De la Cruz, a socialist, will not count because the two are not qualified to appear on the ballot, the Supreme Court of Georgia ruled unanimously on Sept. 25.
The state’s highest court overruled an earlier decision by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger that had lowered the signature threshold needed in petitions for ballot access to 7,500.
