Two Fulton County judges have disqualified independent Cornel West and socialist Claudia De la Cruz from Georgia’s presidential ballot, narrowing the field of qualified candidates in the Peach State to four.

ATLANTA — Two Fulton County judges have disqualified independent Cornel West and socialist Claudia De la Cruz from Georgia’s presidential ballot, narrowing the field of qualified candidates in the Peach State to four.

In decisions handed down Wednesday, the judges ruled that electors for West and De la Cruz improperly filed nominating petitions for their candidates. The ruling reverses a decision by Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger late last month.
