Here is a link to the South Carolina Election Commission’s web page, showing candidates for President who are on the ballot. There will be five presidential nominees on the ballot, those nominated by the Democratic, Republican, Constitution, Green, and Libertarian Parties.

South Carolina has three ballot-qualified parties that only exist in that state, and which didn’t nominate anyone for President. They are the United Citizens Party, the Independence Party, and the Labor Party. In the past the United Citizens Party has nominated presidential candidates. In 2008 it nominated Barack Obama for President. Even though South Carolina permits fusion, though, something went wrong and Obama was only listed on the ballot as the Democratic nominee. In 2000 it nominated Ralph Nader. In 2004 it nominated Walt Brown, the Socialist Party nominee.

Also in the past, the Independence Party nominated Ross Perot for President in 1996, and Ralph Nader for President in 2004. Back in 1996 its name was the Patriot Party.

Mississippi ballots will print Barbara Dale Washer on the ballot as the Reform Party presidential nominee. She is the choice of the faction of the Mississippi Reform Party that is headed by Shawn O’Hara. The choice of the Reform Party’s national convention for President, Andre Barnett, will thus not appear on the Mississippi ballot. Barnett will appear in one state, Florida.

Here is a link to the Secretary of State’s list of candidates. However, it does not yet show which independent presidential candidates will appear. The deadline for the independent presidential petition was September 7, yet the web page has not been updated since before that date.

The Democratic Party has U.S. House nominees in two of the state’s four districts, but the Reform Party has nominees for U.S. House in all four districts. There are also two Libertarians running for U.S. House, and one Constitution Party nominee for U.S. House.

The New Hampshire Ballot Law Commission will hold a hearing on September 20 to decide if Virgil Goode should be on the ballot as the Constitution Party nominee for president. Goode has presented evidence that he submitted enough valid signatures by the deadline to the various town clerks. He still isn’t certified because a few of the town clerks lost some of those signatures, but he has copies and he has proof that the lost signatures were valid.

The Green Party attempted to petition in New Hampshire but did not obtain enough valid signatures, and didn’t submit the petitions to the Secretary of State. Therefore, there will be either three or four presidential candidates on the New Hampshire ballot, depending on the outcome of the September 20 hearing.
