[Lnc-business] Ballot Access in Arkansas

[Scott L.]

The vote test to retain ballot access in Arkansas is 3% for Governor or
President.

 

Look at their election results.

 

ALL of their statewide nominees broke the 3% barrier, except their nominee
for Governor.

 

IMO, that certainly satisfies the "modicum of support" that state
legislators usually claim is necessary when trying to justify the vote tests
that they enact into law.

 

 

This situation cries out for the National LP to work with the LP of Arkansas
to lobby the Arkansas State Legislature to change the vote test to 2% or 3%
in any statewide race to get 4 years of ballot access.

 Victory for the AR Libertarians!
 Election by the numbers


  


 


  

 
After running an incredible campaign, educating hundreds of thousands of
Arkansans about the libertarian philosophy and the LPAR, our esteemed
gubernatorial candidate Frank Gilbert earned 16,217 votes on Tuesday.
 
Unfortunately, we were not able to reach the state-mandated percentage
requirement (3%) to retain our ballot access for 2016. This means that we
will again have to raise tens of thousands of dollars and re-petition in
order to run Libertarian candidates in 2016.
