Atlanta Progressive News Covers Georgia Ballot Access Case

The June 21 issue of Atlanta Progressive News has this story about the ballot access case in Georgia, Coffield v Handel. Thanks to Kimberly Wilder of IndependentPoliticalReport for the link. The case was filed by Faye Coffield, who tried to qualify as an independent candidate for the U.S. House last year. No independent candidate for U.S. House has qualified under Georgia’s 5% (of the number of registered voters) since 1964, and no minor party candidate has ever done so. The case is pending in the 11th circuit.
