On December 12, U.S. District Court Judge Allen Winsor, a Trump appointee, refused to disturb the decision of the Florida Democratic Party that only President Joe Biden may run in the party’s presidential primary.  Steinberg v Democratic Party of Florida.

Here is the 10-age order.  It says that the plaintiff, a Florida Democratic voter, does not have standing, and also that the Democratic Party of Florida is not a state actor.  It also suggests he should have sued all 67 county election officials.

Steinberg says he will appeal.

The Delaware Election Commission website shows that No Labels Party has 1,258 registered members, which is more than enough to make it a qualified party.  See the January 1, 2024 data here.

Delaware updates its data every month.  The December 1, 2023 tally was the first instance at which Delaware had reported any No Labels registrants.  At that time No Labels had 548 registrants.

The requirement is to have registration membershp equal to one-tenth of 1% of the number of registered voters, as of December 31, 2023.  That requirement is 769 registrations.

No Labels has issued a press release attacking the Delaware Election Commissioner, Anthony Albence, who has apparently threatened to cancel the party’s qualified status on the basis that some voters were tricked into registering with No Labels.  No Labels says all its registration workers wore shirts while they were canvassing saying, “This Is Not A Petition.”

On January 9, the Washington Secretary of State released the names of presidential primary candidates.  In Washington, parties have complete control over which candidates are listed.  There are only five listed for the Republican ballot, and three for the Democratic ballot.  See the list here.
