North Dakota Libertarian Statewide Candidates Poll Enough Primary Votes to Qualify for November Ballot

On June 9, North Dakota held open primaries for the Republican, Democratic, and Libertarian Parties. North Dakota is the only state which requires primary candidates to poll a specified minimum number of votes in the primary in order to be on the November ballot. Statewide candidates need 300 votes. The Libertarians running for statewide office all received enough votes. The ticket of DuWayne Hendrickson & Joshua Voytek, running as a team for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, received 665 votes in preliminary election returns. For U.S. House, Steven James Peterson received 686.

The vote minimum requirements for legislature are far more severe, and usually require over 100 votes inside that legislative district. For this reason, no minor party candidate for legislature has appeared on the November ballot since 1976, when the American Party managed to meet the vote requirement for a few legislative candidates.

North Dakota Libertarian Statewide Candidates Poll Enough Primary Votes to Qualify for November Ballot — 4 Comments

  1. Which UNEQUAL machination will the D-R oligarchs use to PURGE ALL non-D-R candidates OFF the ballots ???

    Too many absolute MORON lawyers and judges to count —

    too evil stupid to detect EQUAL in 14-1.

  2. All right! This is a stupid law, because if a candidate runs unopposed in a primary it should not matter how many votes they got, but I am glad to see they made it.

  3. Clarification on L.P. Party Boss Insider Control

    The CA State L.P. used approval voting (AppV) for all delegates to decide which candidates could be in the February CA State L.P. convention Presidential debate. Six of the eleven US Presidential candidates were allowed in this important debate.

    California Used Approval Voting (AppV)

    Approval voting is a one-party system so only the six candidates who were well-known, could get into the debate, since AppV (the one-party system) was used. Only the ones with the most tokens by having allies in audience and after the introduction was made, they voted using AppV, to determine who could speak/debate.

    Those six winners represented tokens in the one-party system, in that election they advance to the debate, the losers got norhing. Under AppV the biggest faction of voters usually gets a super-majority of wins.

    Our team the new PPR Electoral College, insists on equal treatment and equal time for all.

    We oppose AppV because it brings male-dominated results and the majority of the voters elect a super-majority in the totals.

    AppV elects only the biggest faction across the board and 2nd biggest gets nothing.

    AppV is no good because it blocks competition from new ideas and new voices.

    As a one-party system, AppV protects the insiders from competition, and the insiders like the one-party system just fine with CA State L.P., but the United Coalition USA opposes all one-party and two-party voting systems.

    The team called the pure proportional representation (PPR) Electoral College is 100% opposed to all one-party and two-party voting systems.

    We abandoned one-party and two-party voting systems in 1995 when we elected the 125-member 1st USA Parliament (AKA United Coalition USA) under PPR.

    Our team wants to talk about how one token/vote per Elector/Delegate, how one token under limited voting brings the three-party system or the 539-party system to the 538-member Electoral College, but we got snuffed out from the get go, and now no one speaks out how limited voting can change everything.

    The other candidates used similar slogans of unity but the one-party system cannot bring the 539-party system based on one stack of paper ballots.

    We question the ability to unite under a one-party or two-party voting system beyond rhetoric. Our team is moving forward anyway by thinking, voting and acting like a team.

    Those blocked from joining the CA State L.P. Prez debate included three California Prez candidates, a Pennsylvanian and a Georgian Prez candidate too.

    Of the five blocked from participating in debate with the insiders, two had flown from across country, and three were locals who were counting on being in front of the home crowd for the first time.

    Because the CA State L.P. used AppV, our team the United Coalition USA, couldn’t be on the same stage to bring more competition of ideas.

    Our math brings the three-party system and/or 539-party system to the national Electoral College under pure proportional representation, but the LNC blocked us from speaking, so that cemented the one-party system since no one knows any better.

    That happened in 2012 too, when we got snuffed out from speaking, and the Johnson/Weld campaign said “I (Johnson) am the answer to the two-party system.”

    But Johnson/Weld never brought limited voting in any form or statement so instead of an answer we got more of the same.

    The United Coalition USA has been bringing the Droop Quota to elections since 1992 and despite being deleted from Usenet when Google was founded and launched off our backs, we’re still trying to find our voice with the Libertarian Party.

    Anyone please feel free to phone or email if you need help participating under the new PPR Electoral College.

  4. Why don’t you bring the 539 gender system too? Two genders is no different or better than two parties.
