Dean Phillips Fights for Inclusion on Wisconsin Primary Ballot

Wisconsin Supreme Court to Respond to Phillips' Complaint After State Democrats Only Include Biden on Ballot

Democratic presidential candidate Dean Phillips is seeking to be included on the Wisconsin primary ballot, after the state's top Democrats only put President Joe Biden's name on the ballot.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has asked the Wisconsin Elections Commission and the Wisconsin Presidential Preference Selection Committee to respond to Phillips' complaint by Wednesday.
Phillips argues that his request to be put on the ballot was illegally ignored, as he meets the test in Wisconsin law for gaining ballot access that says a candidate must be 'generally advocated or recognized in the national news media.'
Phillips, who received about 20% of the vote in the New Hampshire Democratic primary, has challenged similar decisions in Florida and North Carolina.
If his name is not on the Wisconsin ballot, Phillips will have to 'waste resources to circulate petitions and gather signatures' in order to get on the ballot through an alternative process.
