Good, if your campaign isn't competent enough to even file the right bureaucratic papers you proooobably don't have anything together enough to run a country
In fairness to the Greens, they actually had the right paperwork prepared and ready to file, and it was refused with the state officials saying to file incorrect paperwork instead.
I feel this is bad in terms of (non-legal) precedent - the GOP might be able to use a similar strategy to keep the Dems off the ballot in the future in any battleground states where they control both the governorship and the state legislature.
E.g.
Dems: Here's the correct paperwork. Put us on the ballot and see you on election day.
State officials (GOP affiliated): No, wrong paperwork. Fill this out.
Dems: You sure? We think this is right.
State officials: Yep, you gotta do this one or no election for you.
Dems: Fine.
National GOP: They filled the paperwork wrong. Keep them off the ballot.
Dems: Nope, we were told do this by the State.
State officials (GOP affiliated): Sorry, we made a mistake. You're off the ballot.
Dems: Courts?
Courts: Sorry, but you're still off the ballot even though it's not your fault.
Her campaign filed the correct forms, the elections official lied and gave them the wrong forms to resubmit. The DNC will lie and cheat if they feel threatened
You are absolutely right here and I appreciate you trying to inform people. Unfortunately this crowd is mostly anti-green-party to the point that it blinds them from being reasonable on the subject.
No, they filed the wrong forms because they didn’t do any due diligence on what a clerk mistakenly sent them. The whole SCOTUS case was because they were saying that just because they were idiots, it shouldn’t stop the signatures from still counting. However there is well established precedent on the similar cases that puts the onus on the people filing paperwork with the government.

This is from back when they submitted the correct form, with around 3 times the required number of signatures. Democrats challenged it, the green party requested a new form, and the details of that incident are in OP's article. The secretary of states office gave them the wrong form, they again submitted 3 times the required number of signatures, and democratic majority supreme court kicked them off the ballot.
Got a source for that bullshit you just said?
