Tennessee Ballot Access Bill Now Also Introduced in State House of Representatives

The Tennessee bill to lower the number of signatures for a newly-qualifying party now exists in both houses of the legislature. The House bill is HB 958. It is the same as SB 1091, and both bills would lower the number of signatures from 2.5% of the last gubernatorial vote (over 44,000) to exactly 1,000. The sponsor of HB 958 is Representative Jason Powell (D-Nashville).
