The Arkansas Secretary of State’s office has determined that the Green Party petition for presidential status, and the Constitution Party petition for presidential status, both have enough valid signatures. The Green Party is now on 22 ballots for president in 2016 and the Constitution Party is now on 14.
The Constitution Party probably also has enough valid signatures on its Alaska presidential petition, but the state still hasn’t checked the signatures because it is busy checking an initiative petition. Thanks to Tom Mayfield for the Constitution Party news.
That is great news. The more ballots the minor parties get into before 2016, the better. It is too bad that most of the resources and money of third parties go to ballot access and not actual campaigning.
