John, The upcoming presidential election represents a unique opportunity for us to amplify our voice and challenge the status quo. However, to truly make an impact, we must first overcome a significant hurdle: ballot access. Ballot access is the right of a political party to have its candidates appear on the ballot in an election. In the United States, ballot access requirements vary from state to state. The Libertarian Party faces significant challenges in gaining ballot access in many states. This is because the two major parties have a stronghold on the political system and have made it difficult for third parties to compete. You can help us fight these challenges with a gift today. >>> We believe that ballot access should not be a barrier to the spread of liberty. Our vision includes creating a network of states that support
reciprocity, allowing successful ballot access in one state to facilitate access in others. A presidential candidate with ballot access in all 50 states has a far greater reach. Your contribution will help us promote this vision and effect meaningful change across the nation. That's why I'm asking for your help to secure ballot access for the Libertarian Party in the 2024 presidential election. Your donation will help us pay for signature gathering, legal challenges, outreach and promotion, and educational initiatives. Click here to donate to our Ballot Access efforts today! >>> Here are the specific ways your donation will be used: - Signature Gathering Campaign: Obtaining the required number of signatures from registered voters is an essential step in gaining ballot access. Your support will empower our dedicated volunteers to canvass neighborhoods, attend events, and gather the signatures needed to qualify for the ballot.
- Legal
Assistance: Unfortunately, gaining ballot access often comes with legal challenges and bureaucratic hurdles. Your donation will enable us to seek expert legal counsel and overcome any legal obstacles that stand in our way.
- Outreach and Promotion: Running a successful ballot access campaign demands extensive outreach efforts. Your contribution will fuel our advertising, promotional materials, and social media campaigns, ensuring our message reaches a broader audience.
- Educational Initiatives: By securing ballot access, we gain the opportunity to educate voters about libertarian principles and how they can bring real change to your state.
There
are four states that need our help in 2023. The cost of paying to have signatures gathered is roughly $10 per signature. Our signature requirements for each state are: |
