Feb. 3 (UPI) — Despite the protests of some of his fellow party members, Rep. Dean Phillips will appear on the Democratic ballot during Wisconsin’s presidential primary, the state’s Supreme Court has ruled.
The Wisconsin high court sided with Phillips in a Friday ruling , declaring the 55-year-old Minnesota congressman to be eligible after he sued to be added to the ballot for the Badger State’s April 2 primary election.
Phillips will appear on the Democratic ballot alongside President Joe Biden.
Author Marianne Williamson is also seeking the 2024 Democratic nomination in Wisconsin, which has 10 electoral votes in the Electoral College.
Former President Donald Trump and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley are two of the six names that will appear on the Republican side of the state’s primary ballot.
