Here is the story from cowboystatedaily.com.
A source has informed Ballot Access News that No Labels has ended its attempt to become a recognized party in California through the voter registration process, because the process was too hard and not proceeding fast enough.
About 75,000 voter registrations would be needed to qualify as a new party through the voter registration process. We have been told that about 25,000 voter registrations were gathered before the plug was pulled on the effort.
If that voter registration process has, in fact, ended, No Labels could qualify for the California ballot through an independent candidate petition drive that would require 219,403 signatures of registered voters between April 26 and August 9, 2024.
Here is a story, with valuable links within it, from USA Today.

It’s gonna cause a stink with the Democratic National Committee and President Biden, but the New Hampshire Primary will be held on Tuesday, January 23, 2004, as per David Scanlon, the New Hampshire Secretary of State.

Montanans for Election Reform Action Fund (MERAF) wishes to circulate an initiative for voters’ signatures that would make a Blanket Primary with the Top Four candidates advancing to a Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) General Election the election method for several offices in that state. It is named BI-12 (BI stands for “Ballot Initiative”).
The Montana Attorney General, Austin Knudsen, has ruled that the various provisions in BI-12, including no political party affiliations listed with candidates on either the Primary or General Election ballot, constitute too many provisions to have the initiative comply with the Single Subject Rule governing initiatives in Montana.
MERAF has sued the Montana Attorney General in the Supreme Court of Montana. The Attorney General recently filed a defense of his decision with the Court.
