While the GOP are climate deniers, Democrats have moved from being climate evaders to supporting fossil fuels and promoting false climate solutions like nuclear. The Green Party has called for a halt to fossil fuels and, since 2010, a Green New Deal with a ten-year transition to zero emissions and an Economic Bill of Rights. nytimes.com/2026/06/11/clima…

Here is the press release that went out earlier about our ballot status victory: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 8, 2026 Contact: Pete Karas | vote@petekaras.com | PeteKaras.com PETE KARAS WINS: DEMOCRATS' DIRTY TRICK COLLAPSES Milwaukee Law Firm Hired to Knock Green Party Off Ballot Withdraws Challenge in Defeat MUSKEGO, WI — The Democratic-backed challenge to Pete Karas's nomination papers for Wisconsin Secretary of State is dead. Attorney Stacie Rosenzweig of Halling & Cayo S.C., representing challenger Gregory Walz-Chojnacki, notified the Wisconsin Elections Commission this morning that the challenge is being dropped. The reason? The Karas campaign fought back hard, and he won. Let's be honest about what just happened: Democrats hired a Milwaukee law firm to knock the Green Party off the ballot. It didn't work. "They couldn't find a single fraudulent signature. They couldn't name a single unqualified voter. They couldn't identify one signer who was confused or misled," said Karas. "So they threw hypertechnical garbage at the wall and hoped the Wisconsin Elections Commission would do their dirty work for them. The Commission didn't get the chance — because we buried them in affidavits, legal arguments, and the truth." The Party of 'Democracy' Tried to Eliminate Your Choices Democrats love to talk about protecting democracy. Then they hire lawyers to make sure you can't vote for anyone but them. It’s their strategy. In 2024, Democrats worked to challenge Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein's ballot access in Wisconsin. In 2020, they succeeded, and Green Party presidential candidate Howie Hawkins was knocked off the Wisconsin ballot entirely in a process widely condemned as a coordinated partisan attack. Wisconsin courts and election officials became instruments of two-party suppression. Now in 2026, they're trying it again — against a Secretary of State candidate whose circulators were all sworn Wisconsin residents, whose thousands of signers were all qualified voters, and whose nomination papers were filed in full good faith using forms obtained directly from municipal websites. "The Democratic Party would rather spend money on lawyers than earn votes on the merits," said Karas. "That tells you everything about how confident they are in their own candidate and how much they fear a real alternative." What They Were Really Afraid Of Pete Karas on the 2026 ballot isn't just a choice for Wisconsin voters this November. A strong Green Party showing in the Secretary of State race locks in automatic Wisconsin ballot access for the Green Party in the 2028 presidential election cycle. The Democratic establishment knows this. That's why they came after this race specifically. That's why they hired the lawyers. That's why they filed the challenge on a weekend when the Elections Commission was closed, and the campaign had 72 hours to respond. It was a calculated ambush. It failed. We're Still Standing The Karas campaign was forced to retain legal counsel, gather sworn affidavits from 13 circulators across Wisconsin, and file a comprehensive verified response — all over a single weekend. Every dollar spent on lawyers was a dollar not spent talking to voters. That's exactly what the Democrats wanted. "We fought back anyway," said Karas. "We're still on the ballot. We're still running. And every Wisconsin voter who's disgusted by what they just watched the Democratic Party try to do should know: there's a place for you on November 3rd. Vote Green." Pete Karas is the Wisconsin Green Party candidate for Secretary of State and a former Racine City Alderman from Muskego. Learn more and donate at PeteKaras.com.

The Arizona Green Party is proud to announce its endorsements list of candidates.👇 In Arizona, a candidate’s party label on the ballot does not necessarily indicate membership in, or endorsement by, that party. Our endorsement list is meant to clarify that distinction.

Pete Karas, the Wisconsin Green Party’s candidate for secretary of state, says his nomination papers have been challenged ahead of hearing before the Wisconsin Elections Commission over a “technicality” tied to the state's Act 126. NEW on SUBSTACK: independentpoliticalreport.s…

Press release sent today: We're fighting this challenge, even if it goes to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Democrats Try to Kick Green Party Candidate Off the Ballot. He's Not Having It. MUSKEGO, WI — Pete Karas filed his nomination papers to run for Wisconsin Secretary of State as a Green Party candidate. Today, someone hired a law firm to make sure you never get to vote for him. A verified challenge was filed this morning with the Wisconsin Elections Commission targeting Karas's nomination papers. The legal work was done by Halling & Cayo, S.C., a Milwaukee firm. The grounds? A technicality — circulator certification language tied to 2025 Wisconsin Act 126, a law that has already been challenged in federal court as unconstitutional. Karas isn't surprised. "This is the playbook," he said. "When the two-party system can't beat you on the issues, they try to make sure you're never on the ballot in the first place. Democrats talk about protecting democracy. What they mean is protecting their own power." The challenge will be heard by the Wisconsin Elections Commission on June 9, 2026. Karas plans to file a full verified response and show up to defend his candidacy in person. "I collected those signatures. Real people signed those papers because they want a choice that isn't a Democrat or a Republican. I'm going to fight for every one of those signatures — and I'm going to be on that ballot in November." Karas is running on a platform of government transparency, expanded public records access, ranked-choice voting, and breaking down the barriers that keep independent and third-party candidates off the ballot. He notes the particular absurdity of the moment: a candidate being sued off the ballot for advocating better ballot access. "They just made my point for me," he said. Pete Karas is the Wisconsin Green Party candidate for Secretary of State. Learn more at PeteKaras.com. Paid for by Pete for Wisconsin.

As expected, some Democratic Party lackey filed a challenge to our nomination papers. After meeting with our campaign’s attorney, we’re confident that this is a frivolous challenge, although the Wisconsin Elections Commission is known to do the wrong thing. This may end up before the Wisconsin Supreme Court next week. Our legal bills will run into the thousands and maybe tens of thousands of dollars. If you can help, that would be amazing. Any amount helps! Winning this gets us ballot status for the 2028 presidential election. We will be issuing statements, press releases, and a big surprise for Wisconsin unDemocratic Party Friday.
