According to this Arkansas politics blog, the Constitution Party is making plans to attempt to get itself on the ballot in 2010. The law requires 10,000 signatures, to be collected in any 3 months of the party’s choosing, but the signatures are due in July if the party wants to have candidates in 2010. Apparently the party is eager to run someone for Governor. Thanks to Bill Van Allen for the link.
The only minor parties that have been on the ballot in Arkansas (other than for President, which is easier) in the last 45 years have been the Green Party, the Reform Party, and the American Party. Arkansas is the only state in the nation in which no Libertarian has ever been on the ballot for a partisan office, other than President.
The message from the chairman instills confidence in me that he knows what needs to be done and is developing a plan to accomplish the goal.
