Florida Has Seventeen Qualified Parties, but Only Four Have Any Legislative Candidates

Florida has 17 qualified parties, more than any other state.

This year, as usual, Florida has 20 State Senate races and 120 State House races. Out of all those 140 legislative races, only four parties have any legislative candidates. The Democratic Party has a nominee in all 140 races. The Republican Party has nominees in 119 races. There are five Libertarians running, and one Independent Party nominee.

Also there are five independent candidates.

Florida keeps the number of candidates to a relatively low level because it has such high filing fees.

  1. MINORITY RULE GERRYMANDERS IN ALL 5 STATE LEGIS

    1/2 X 1/2 = 1/4 CONTROL

    MUCH WORSE PRIMARY MATH

    PR
    TV/TM = EQUAL VOTES TO ELECT EACH M

  2. I think it’s talking about Telemundo station WKAQ in San Juan Puerto Rico.

  3. Tom Jones always had a thing for boriqua transvestite prostitutes whenever he would party with brown acid at apartment V at TotsepA resort in Puerto Rico. He would go totally meshugeneh for them.

  4. Thus is why I have seen the light and voting Donald Trump. I hate people impersonating me and trolling.

  5. Some people change underwear often but not stock boy. Who he supports for president tho changes not by the day but by the hour. Kind of like what guy he is servicing.

  6. I agree free Gaza. Israel has freed Gaza of yahya sinwar and a few thousand other terrorists but there’s a few thousand gang rapist murdering terrorist Nazi Hamas scumbags to go before Gaza and the hostages including 7 Americans are truly free.

  7. Florida makes it quite easy for a “party” to qualify. It needs three party officers and bylaws filed with the SOS.

    Parties tend to be disqualified because they can not satisfy the requirement of $500 of annual contributions or expenditures or afford the cost of an audit by a CPA. If a candidate does pay the filing fee to seek the nomination of a party, most of the filing fee actually goes to the party. It an election in Florida, including a party primary, is uncontested, it is cancelled. So many of the nominees were not actually chosen in primaries.
