If you are concerned about Indiana ballot access, it is important to know that bills must be introduced only four session days after the legislature convenes on January 7.
Indiana ballot access is among the worst in the nation. For the last three presidential elections, the presidential candidate who placed third nationally has not been on the ballot in Indiana. That candidate, of course, is Ralph Nader. Indiana is one of only 4 states in which Nader’s name has never been on the ballot. Of all the states with really bad ballot access, Indiana and Texas are the only ones with no ballot access lawsuits pending. Therefore, any improvement in those two states must be by persuading state legislators to improve the laws. In Texas, legislators may introduce bills as late as March 13, 2009.
Separate is NOT equal in ALL States ALL the time.
Brown v. Bd of Ed 1954 — NOT brought up by armies of MORON lawyers since 1968 in hundreds of ballot access cases.
Obvious remedy – EQUAL nominating petitions for ALL candidates for the same office in the same election area.
Way too difficult for the party hack Supremes to understand ???
NO primary elections are needed.
P.R. legislative and A.V. – nonpartisan executive / judicial
I think you reported earlier Richard that Texas does have a piece of legislation up that was sponsored by two representatives I believe, just to note.
