WHAT WE'RE DOING ABOUT IT
REASON FOR THE GRADE
• Candidate access: 2,000 signatures; $0 filing fee; estimated independent ballot tax $28,380
• Party access: Party formation requires 10,000 registered voters; first nominees by convention after certification
• Bottom line: Substantial candidate signature count, but party petition is not among the highest.
