Americans Elect Removed from Nebraska Ballot

On November 20, 2013, the state chair of Americans Elect asked the Nebraska Secretary of State to remove it from qualified status. The Secretary of State agreed to do this. Otherwise, the state would have been required to print up 2014 primary ballots for Americans Elect. See this story.

The Libertarian Party currently is the only qualified party in Nebraska, other than the two major parties.

Americans Elect was still on the ballot in Nebraska, even though it had not run any candidates in 2012, because the law provides that when a group submits a party petition, it is then ballot-qualified for the next two elections.
