Barack Obama, like all Democratic presidential candidates in recent years, is happy to accept the Working Families Party nomination in New York state, and to be listed on the New York ballot on two lines. However, his campaign has not secured the necessary paperwork to allow the same thing to happen in Connecticut. In Connecticut, the Working Families Party would be allowed to cross-endorse him, but only if it submits a petition signed by 7,500 valid names. That petition is due in little over two weeks. So although the Connecticut Working Families will almost certainly be on the ballot for all U.S. House races in the state (cross-endorsing each Democratic nominee for U.S. House), it is unlikely to be on for president.
