 Ballot Access News -- February 1, 2000
The parties say that the guiding principle must be either that the parties may decide this matter for themselves, or that they may not; but it's logically faulty to apply the principle in one situation, and not in the opposite situation.
But there is a catch: a qualified party with registration membership less than 15% of the statewide total may not place candidates on the general election ballot unless they submit the same large number of signatures that unqualified parties need.
Even after a party is "qualified" (by means of submitting a petition signed by one-half of 1% of the last vote cast), if it is a minor party, it must get thousands of non-members to sign for its nominees, in order to nominate them.
