The @PADems have succeeded in their attempt to remove #GreenParty candidates @HowieHawkins and @AngelaNWalker from the Pennsylvania ballot.
I ask is this what election meddling looks like? 1/6
Earlier this year the @GreenPartyofPA sued the PA Commonwealth demanding relief of in-person petitioning due to #COVID19. The PADEMs intervened in the case and argued that allowing the Greens into the November election would damage the rights of the Dem candidates. 2/6
There PADEMs argued that the Greens had the opportunity to run in the Democratic primary. Remember their party previously argued that they had the legal right to disregard the results of their primary. 3/6
Dem cohorts later filed a challenge against the nominating papers of the Greens but had to backtrack on all signatures challenges. They conceded that they never had the evidence to remove 3 of 5 candidates and they lost. Except for removing a queer black women for VP. 4/6
Then the cohorts appeal to the PA Supreme court and stopped the ballots for #Election2020 from being printed so they can remove their competitor. Now the ballots will be delayed by weeks. 5/6
This is not what #Democracy looks like. This is election interference. 6/6
