Connecticut lets parties that polled at least 15,000 votes in the previous election engage in fusion (the ability for two parties to jointly nominate the same candidate). But Connecticut law won’t permit parties that polled less than 15,000 votes in the last election do the same thing. This analysis in the Yankee Institute for Public Policy suggests that Connecticut law violates the U.S. Constitution.

This law only applies to “state elections”, which happen in even numbered years. So a party which did not meet the 15,000 vote threshold can still cross-endorse candidates for local elections in odd numbered years.
I support fusion voting .I wish Missouri would allow fusion Voting .Maybe Libertarians could create subversion by running as Republicans also .
