Working Class Party Becomes Ballot-Qualified in One U.S. House District in Illinois

Posted on by November 9, 2024

On November 5, the Working Class Party polled enough votes to become ballot-qualified for 2026 in the Illinois Fourth U.S. House district. Ed Hershey polled 5.11% of the vote, meeting the 5% vote test.

Although Illinois has some of the worst ballot access laws in the nation for minor parties and independents, Illinois does allow parties to become ballot-qualified in just part of the state, if they meet the vote test in that portion of the state.

Hershey was running against both a Democrat and a Republican. This is the first time the Working Class Party has attained qualified party status anywhere in the U.S., other than in Maryland and Michigan.

    The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.
