Here’s a story today published by The Washington Post. It mentions the Libertarian Party, which has achieved presidential ballot access in all 50 states and DC in five of the last eight presidential elections, but none of the LP’s possible presidential candidates this year. The LP’s presidential ticket will be selected at its National Convention on Memorial Day weekend at the Washington Hilton Hotel in the District of Columbia.
Too few valid signatures is the ostensible reason, but Nadezhdin says a huge overage was collected.
Here is the story from CNN.
On February 6, the Hawaii Senate Judiciary Committee passed SB 2392 by a vote of 3-2. The two “no” votes included the lone Republican on the committee (Senator Brenton Awa) as well as Democratic Senator Mike Gabbard.
In Hawaii, legislators can vote for a bill “with reservations”, or they can simply cast a normal “yes” vote. One of the three Democrats who voted for the bill, Senator Joy Buenaventura, voted for the bill “with reservations.”
The bill bans insurrectionists from the general election ballot. Hawaii doesn’t have presidential primaries.
The vote on Wednesday, February 7 was 102 Yes-219 No.
