What is Ballot Access?
Ballot Access is the process by which candidates are allowed to place their name on the ballot. Each State is different. Visit the Division of Elections on your state’s website to find out more about the process in your state.
Who is in Charge of Ballot Access?
Ballot Access is defined by each state legislature. Each state’s Elections Division establishes the rules and regulations, which are implemented by each county, parish, or borough Election Office.
Who Creates Ballot Access Rules?
Ballot Access rules are created by elected officials of one of the two major parties, both of which greatly benefit from impeding the voice of the American people and the rise of other political parties in America.

cunning, ambitious And unprincipled men will be enabled…
Since 1787.
Made in America.
Built for Liberty.
[by political parties] to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government…
George Washington, farewell address, September 17, 1796.

Established 1992.
is ballot access equal for all political parties?
NO!
Ballot access is generally free and open to all candidates running as Republicans and Democrats.
Alternative parties and independents have other steps they must follow which vary from state to state. These steps are often expensive, time-consuming, and convoluted, and are designed to keep alternative voices from the ballot.
The current political status quo is like an ice cream shop which only serves two flavors. Other flavors may or may not be on the list. Eventually people stop buying ice cream at that shop.
Americans are no longer buying the two-party system. Americans become more engaged when its citizens have real choices with which they identify philosophically. The Constitution Party offers the only political choice committed to re-establishing America’s Constitutional Republic, according to the Actual Intent of the Founders.
how can i help the constitution party gain ballot access in my state?
Contact your Secretary of State’s Office and ask the Elections Division how ballot access works in your state. Most states have a signature petition requirement with very specific rules to follow.
You can also:
- CONTACT your state party leadership to find out how you can help the Constitution Party gain ballot access in your state.
- Sign a petition when asked and/or serve as a volunteer petition gatherer.
- DONATE to your state or national party. We need money to pay signature gatherers in states where the number of signatures required is in the thousands, and occasionally there are court costs associated with litigation regarding ballot access. Each state sets its own rules, and the cost can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars. This is an expense the two major parties do not have to pay.
