Description

With all this talk of third party candidates in the 2024 presidential race, there's one big hurdle they have to overcome: Getting on ballots in enough states (like...all 50), to be able to get enough votes to be competitive. How does that process work, exactly? Michael gets expertise from Richard Winger, a long-time advocate for easy and open ballot access for minority parties and candidates. He is publisher of Ballot Access News. Original air date 12 February 2024.
