On Thursday, progressive presidential candidate Cornel West announced he’s leaving the Green Party to register as an Independent.

“People are hungry for change. They want good policies over partisan politics. We need to break the grip of the duopoly and give power to the people,” West wrote on X, the website previously known as Twitter.

“I’m running as an Independent candidate for President of the United States to end the iron grip of the ruling class and ensure true democracy!”

This marks the second time West has changed his party affiliation since launching his White House campaign in June. (RELATED: Progressive Activist Launches White House Campaign)

West was previously registered with the liberal People’s Party before switching to the Green Party.

His move to run as an independent comes as recent polling has shown an uptick in voter interest in another option besides President Biden and former President Trump.

“We need you to be part and parcel of wrestling with this corporate duopoly,” West said in a brief view attached to his party change announcement.

Nancy grew up in the South where her passion for politics first began. After getting her BA in journalism from Ole Miss she became an arts and culture writer for Athens Magazine where she enjoyed reporting on the eclectic music and art scene in Athens, GA.

However, her desire to report on issues and policies impacting everyday Americans won out and she packed her bags for Washington, DC. Now, she splits her time between the Nation’s Capital and Philadelphia where she covers the fast-paced environment of politics, business, and news.
In her off time, you can find Nancy exploring museums or enjoying brunch with friends.
