Could be the Oklahoma AG wants to get a better read on the new composition of the SCOTUS.

Delay serves to discourage prospective candidates from making plans outside the two-party channels. Perhaps, it is time for an independent candidate for AG in Oklahoma.

In 1998 you did a compartive list of ballot access law in Europe. I am having trouble finding the list on your website. Have you thought about doing an updated list?

Also in Moorhead, MN we are having a city elections, and I think that a Green Party candidate has filed to run for mayor. Albeit they are non-partisan elections.

We have no petition requirements for city elections. You just pay a small fee and you will be on the ballot.

I have not had much luck getting in touch with the ND third political parties about working together on a ballot access law reform ballot question.

This may also mean Oklahoma officials are doing what they are really good at – procrastination

“This may mean that Oklahoma officials are seriously considering having the legislature improve the law…”

Maybe, but I’m not going to hold my breath…
