Wisconsin Supreme Court orders Dean Phillips to be included on state's Democratic primary ballot

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) be included on the state’s Democratic presidential primary ballot after initially being excluded by the Wisconsin Presidential Preference Selection Committee.

Phillips will now join President Joe Biden in appearing on the ballot for the primary scheduled for April 2. The state’s high court ruled that the committee had “failed to demonstrate that it exercised discretion” in applying state law when discussing whether Phillips should be included on the ballot.
