Missouri House Bill 26 has been dropped from the House calendar, so it is considered dead. It had passed the House on second reading on March 27, but then it was never brought up for third (final) reading. It would have changed Missouri from an open primary state, to a closed primary state. Thanks to Ken Bush for this news.
NOOOO primaries.
Equal nominating petitions/filing fees
PR and AppV
Yep filing fees so only the rich elite can afford to run for office.
A –
For MORONS —
/ = OR
Local regime has both — most Donkey/Elephant legislature partisan candidates use fixed $100 (repeat $100) filing fees. Crowds only when NO incumbent in gerrymander districts.
Should be nom pet min x $ amount.
Also- max 0.2 pct for nom petits
After the first 1 or 2 PR elections likely few candidates (except if no incumbents).
