Oregon Removes Constitution Party and We the People Party for Failing to Have Enough Registered Members

On Auagust 7, the Oregon Secretary of State disqualified the Constitution Party, and the We the People Party for failing to have enough registered voters at the August 1 tally.

The We the People Party did poll over 1% of the vote for President in 2024, but Oregon law says that parties that meet the vote test must have registration of one-tenth of 1% of the state total, and We the People did not meet that standard.  The party had been created in 2024 as a vehicle for the Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. independent candidacy.

The Constitution Party did meet the one-tenth of 1% registration test.  But it did not poll as much as 1% of the vote for any statewide office at either 2022 or 2024, so it was required to have registration of one-fourth of 1%, and it did not.  See this story.
