On June 30, Rocky De La Fuente filed this brief in De La Fuente v Padilla, c.d., 2:16cv-3242. This is the case that challenges the 2016 California requirement that independent candidates submit 178,039 signatures. No one has successfully used that petition since 1992, when Ross Perot needed 134,781 signatures.
The De La Fuente case has a status conference on July 6.
California should eliminate party nominations for President, and require all candidates to collect signatures.
