This Miami Herald story describes the candidates who are on the ballot for Governor of Florida, other than the Democratic and Republican nominees. The story puts Darcy Richardson at the top. He is the only minor party nominee running, and is the nominee of the Reform Party. There also three independents on the ballot. As the story makes plain, only two of them have any real campaign activity.

Florida law says the major party nominees are listed first on the ballot, followed by the nominees of other parties, and then followed by independent candidates. Independent candidates have the ballot label “NPA”. The Democratic Party filed a lawsuit earlier this year over the law that says the party that won the last gubernatorial election is listed first. However, polls suggest that the Democratic nominee will win this election, in which case the Democratic Party will probably dismiss the lawsuit.

There are no minor party or independent candidates on the Florida ballot for U.S. Senate.
