On May 14, the Pennsylvania Constitution, Green, and Libertarian Parties filed a federal lawsuit over ballot access. The Complaint asks that the state permit the three parties to place their nominees on the November ballot without any petitions. It points out that they all petitioned statewide in 2016, and the Green and Libertarian Parties also petitioned statewide in 2018. Libertarian Party of Pennsylvania v Wolf, e.d., 5:20cv-2299. The case is assigned to U.S. District Court Judge Edward G. Smith, an Obama appointee.
