Constitution Party Copes with South Dakota Hurdle

The South Dakota Constitution Party is ballot-qualified, but it still faced a tough ballot access hurdle this month, to qualify its candidate for Governor for its own primary ballot. He needed 250 signatures of registered Constitution Party members, not easy in a party with fewer than 500 members, but he seems to have met the requirement on the deadline, April 4.

  1. I personally feel that the Constitution Party is nuts.

    However, it seems silly to mean that any candidate has to collect so many signatures simply to get on the ballot. Elections should be about candidatse competing and marketing their ideas.

    Unfair ballot access laws meddle in this process.
