Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner has ordered that the Green Party national ticket be placed on the Nov. 4 ballot. A spokesman for Brunner said Wednesday that she made the decision voluntarily in light of recent court rulings.
The Green Party's petition to make the ballot was rejected last month because it lacked the 5,000 signatures required in a Brunner directive regarding minor parties. Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney and vice presidential candidate Rosa Clemente sued Brunner in federal court.
