On June 16, the Independent Party, and the Party for Socialism and Liberation, filed an appeal in their Florida ballot access case. Independent Party of Florida v Lee, 20-12107. The two parties challenge the law that says even though they are qualified, they can’t run a presidential candidate unless they submit 132,781 valid signatures by July 15, or unless they are recognized by the Federal Election Commission as a national committee.

The U.S. District Court had refused injunctive relief.
