According to this letter to the editor by Green Party activist Haryaksha Gregor Knauer, the Arizona Green Party will use its presidential primary. The letter says that Jill Stein and Kent Mesplay will appear on the Green Party presidential primary ballot. No one can formally file for any party’s presidential primary until the period December 20-January 9. The presidential primaries will be February 28.

In 1996, the Arizona Democratic Party and the Arizona Libertarian Party won a lawsuit in state court, saying if a party doesn’t want a presidential primary, the state must not hold one. It is likely that in 2012, the Democratic, Libertarian, and Americans Elect Parties will tell the Secretary of State not to hold presidential primaries for them.
