Filing Closes for Vermont Presidential Primaries

December 16 was the Vermont deadline for candidates to submit 1,000 signatures to get on a presidential primary ballot. Three Republicans submitted a petition, and thirteen Democrats submitted one. See the list from the Vermont Secretary of State’s web page.

Julian Castro didn’t have 1,000 valid signatures, but the law lets candidates in that situation have a chance to collect more signatures, as long as they had submitted at least 1,000 raw signatures by the deadline.

  1. RE: Rule about allowing the collection of make-up signatures: VERY GOOD! Needs to be promoted in all states.

  2. Is there a chart listing all of the states whose deadlines have passed and who is on in each? That would certainly narrow the field for the Dems I think.

  3. Lists 5th Ave for Trump – must have filed early for this before his September relo to Florida.

  4. @ JB: I recall some years back the Secretary in Rhode Island allowed Libertarian candidates to go out and get make up signatures when they came up short.
