Green Party candidates will appear on the ballot in Pennsylvania this November.

They were accepted earlier this month by the Pennsylvania Department of State.

Nomination signatures have been approved for these candidates:

  • Michael Badges-Canning for re-election as mayor, Cherry Valley, Butler Co.
  • Tony Dastra for mayor, Lancaster City, Lancaster Co.
  • Alexander Noyle for auditor, East Norrington, Montgomery Co.

The nomination of Theron Gilliland Jr. for county council in Allegheny Co. has been challenged. Three voters said he has not submitted enough valid signatures.

A court will decide the outcome of the challenge.

 "Our candidates will give PA voters the opportunity to vote for an end to hunger and homelessness in our commonwealth," Green Party organizer Chris Robinson said. "Green Party candidates also stand for an end to political corruption and corporations controlling other political parties.”
