On June 19, 2020, Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo signed H7901. It lowers the number of signatures for all petitions (primary and general) for both houses of Congress, for 2020 only. This is old news but BAN had not previously reported it. The bill lowered U.S. Senate petitions from 1,000 to 500. It lowered U.S. House petitions from 500 to 250.
Despite the new lower requirements, for 2020 only, no Republican got on the ballot in U.S. House district one. No minor party candidates got on for any congressional race. Two independents for U.S. House in the First District did get on.
