Presidential Nominees of Prohibition Party, and Life & Liberty Party, Will Seek the American Independent Nomination

Posted on October 10, 2019 by Richard Winger

Now that the American Independent Party has saved its spot on the California ballot as a result of Governor Gavin Newsom’s veto of SB 696, it will have a presidential primary, as it always does. J. R. Myers, presidential nominee of the Life & Liberty Party, and Phil Collins, nominee of the Prohibition Party, have asked the American Independent Party to be listed on that party’s presidential primary ballot. That primary is March 3, 2020.

I am pleasantly surprised to see that Governor Newsom did the right thing by having vetoed another bad election bill.

Minnesota has a rule like the one that the Governor vetoed.

Doesn’t the AIP nominate by convention as opposed to primary?

All U.S. parties, major and minor, nominate presidential candidates in a convention.

There is no Minnesota law that bans a party from using “Independence” in its name, as is obvious because the Independence Party regularly is on the ballot in Minnesota. The California bill banned not only “independent” but any other word that is a derivative of “independent”. The bill’s sponsor confirmed that he intended to ban “Independence”.
