Prohibition Party on Ballot Before 9.6% of Voters

September 21st, 2008

Gene Amondson, presidential candidate of the Prohibition Party, is on the ballot for the 2008 election in states that cast 9.6% of the national popular vote in 2004. Although 9.6% is modest, it is the best showing for that party since 1976.

    Good to see that the Prohibitionists have begun to rebound after the latter Dodge years where they were just on in Colorado, but it’s too bad they fell short in the other three states they were targeting.

    What ever happen to the “split” that occurred in the Prohibition Party in 2004 (I think)? I’ve only heard of one Prohibition ticket this year.

    Earl Dodge died, then the Dodge faction also nominated Amondson.
