On April 9, the Montana House passed SB 350 on second reading, 67-33. It makes three improvements to the procedure for qualifying a new or previously unqualified party: (1) it says a signature should be considered valid even if the signer doesn’t show the exact form of the name compared to the voter registration record; (2) it says no one may withdraw a signature from a petition to create a new party later than the March petition deadline itself; (3) it says any person may present a completed petition to qualify a new party. There is no need for the individual who submits the petition to prove that he or she is a party officer or representative.
The bill will have a vote on Monday, April 12, in the House, for third reading. Then it will have passed the legislature.
This bill exists because of some restrictive rulings by the Montana state courts in 2018 and 2020. Those rulings invalidated Green Party petitions both years.

If the Democrats are communists and Republicans are fascists, and any other party just divides and conquers either communists or fascists, how would people who are not communists or fascists organize as a party? Dp you really believe all, most, or a significant percentage of US politicians or the people who vote for them are either communists or fascists?

Both top Ds/Rs want TOTAL control of everybody and every thing — aka statists and statism —
and would love to have NOOOO opposition – inclu NOOO third parties and indeps.
Donkeys – 1776-1865 original commies using state POWER to have commie slaves — 1619 into VA.
New Age Donkey commies – wanting more and more more NET tax slaves — supporting more Donkey officials and welfare folks — all those *entitled* folks.
Donkeys = total commies since 1932 election in 1929-1941 Great Depression I.
*Gradual* tax increases decade by decade – with deficits about 25 pct more than taxes = total USA bankruptcy / hyper-inflation any second.
States almost DEAD – mere pass thru thing for Fed *aid*.

State lawmakers seek long-term limit on governors’ emergency power
David A. Lieb, Associated Press Published 3:58 p.m. ET April 10, 2021 | Updated 3:58 p.m. ET April 10, 2021
As governors loosen long-lasting coronavirus restrictions, state lawmakers across the U.S. are taking actions to significantly limit the power they could wield in future emergencies.

Obvious remedy –
sunset / time limits on ALL exec power stuff – even day to day.
Legis meet remote.
TOTAL SOP —- NOOOOO guv vetoes — from 1066 Conquest of England – Killer Wm the C.
Ok, so we’ve established that you believe the two biggest parties are controlled by communists and fascists, yet any other party just divides and conquers them? So in other words you see no opportunity for people who are neither communist nor fascist to organize a party? Is that really what you mean to say?
Communism got really going in 1913-1921 with Prez Wilson — after the ego monster TR Roos. created the Bull Moose gang and divided the Elephants to lose in 1912.
Both larger gangs learned that lesson.
Statism is created/produced/maintained/increased by the UNEQUAL ballot access laws and ANTI-Democracy minority rule gerrymanders — with the media loving the monarch / *strong* *leader* ROT – with rubber stamp Congress and State legis. — basic nonstop political suicide.

One more gerrymander story — thousands to come in 2021-2022
Wait just a cotton picking minute. That story blasts Republicans for gerrymandering and recommends nonpartisan redistricting commissions. Haven’t you blasted those as communist? Who do you think should draw the districts?
Districts can be whole local units / big city census tracts in a PR system [even by legis bodies] —
EARLY deadline — longer term stable.
TOTAL Votes / TOTAL Members = EQUAL votes to elect each Member.
Surplus votes down.
Lowest loser votes up.
ALL votes count.
What is Demo Rep even talking about? Sounds like conspiracy theory gibberish. Can you explain in plain english using complete sentences?
Dmitri / Timmy —
Same old troll with some new names ???
No, and I’m not a troll. Districts are supposed to be equal in population. Local units are not. I don’t know about census tracts. Why does asking you an honest and logical question result in a charge of being a troll and possibly someone else?
