On March 7, the Arizona Secretary of State announced that the No Labels Party petition has enough valid signatures. It will be on the 2024 and 2026 ballot with its own primary each year.
Arizona treats newly-qualifying parties very kindly. Whereas primary candidates of old, established parties need a difficult petition to get themselves on the primary ballot, primary candidates for parties that are less than four years old have a very easy petition to get themselves on a primary ballot. Furthermore, a write-in candidate in a new party’s primary only needs one write-in vote to win the nomination, assuming no one else is running against that person.
When Americans Elect was on the Arizona ballot in 2012 and 2014, people who wanted to appear on the November ballot took advantage of this law, and entered the primary of Americans Elect. So Americans Elect had two U.S. House candidates on the November 2012 ballot. In November 2014 it had two U.S. House candidates and two legislative candidates.
It is not clear if No Labels Party will want any candidates for office other than President, and No Labels Party is not even committed to running for president. But in Arizona, there will probably be No Labels Party candidates for congress and state office, no matter what the No Labels leadership wants. Americans Elect never wanted any non-presidential candidates. It is conceivable that if U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema runs for re-election, she would do so as a No Labels nominee. Thanks to Eric Wong for the news about the No Labels petition success.
Wow! This was the first state in which the No Lables Party started a petition drive. It started around April or May of last year and ended in July. They must have sat on these signatures for a long time before they submitted them to the Arizona Secretary of State.
Andy, do you know which states there is an ongoing No Labels petition, other than Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, North Carolina, and Oregon?
Another commie party to split their votes is always a good thing.
Richard, your information is old. No Labels Party finished all those states. They also finished Nevada. I think they finished Utah as well.
Next up for them is supposed to be Tennessee, Kansas, and Michigan.
I also heard an unconfirmed rumor about them planing to start Idaho.
Still no word on when they will start California.
No Labels Party also finished petition drives in South Carolina and Florida.

I know they finished in Ohio some time ago and the state is taking a long time to check the petition.
No Labels Party started Ohio in July, right after they finished Arizina. They finished Ohio in about 2 1/2 months, but I heard a few weeks after they thought they were done in Ohio that they sent a crew back in to get some more signatures, so they must have thought they were short on their numbers after they finished checking their validity. Regardless, they finished Ohio awhile ago.
The most recent states No Labels Party finished petition drives in are Utah and Nevada.
Some organized campaign will dominate their primary, and they may not appreciate the result.
Very few states give presidential primaries to parties other than Dem and Rep, and furthermore third parties are free to ignore the results of presidential primaries.
Waste of time America’s elect 2.0
No labels party is sure doing far better then Yang’s Forward Party that got so much press
The Forward Party has gotten on the ballot in ZERO states so far.
Communists can’t be too forward, they love Biden since he is Xi puppet.
Are they conspirators in the Xi-Biden plot to arrest President Trump on Tuesday???
