“The reason Florida doesnâ€™t have a crowded general election ballot for office other than president is that it charges non-presidential candidates a very high filing fee (6% of the officeâ€™s annual salary, which means approximately $9,000 for Congress).”

Can’t candidates in Florida gather petition signatures instead of paying the filing fee if they chose to do so?

The Reform Party of FLorida, whom has run major, serious candidates for major offices, and whom has a ‘fair number’ of elected officers on minor/ local levels, is constantly ribbing other states on their lack of ballot access.

Hmmmmmmmmmm.

News Media support of Third Parties.
The Constitution Party still needs money for its ballot qualification in all 50 States.
