		<description>I hope they help point out that because of these ballot access requirements, a massive number of elected offices and positions are often unchallenged or vacant on the ballot.  Case in point, Sandy Springs GA considered canceling the election entirely in 2009 after no challengers were on the ballot.  That is a disgrace.

There have been elections in Georgia where more than a third of the races are unopposed.  This is also used as a tool, in which the two major parties negotiate which races they won&#039;t challenge in order to steer resources to other races, confident the ballot access restrictions will limit anyone other than the other major party from gaining access to the ballot.</description>

		<description>The MORON Supremes got off on the wrong foot in Williams v. Rhodes (1968) and compounded the mess in Jenness -- due to MORON lawyers and their own MORONITY.

Separate is NOT equal.

Every election is NEW.

NOT detectable by MORONS.

I.E. -- ALL of the MORON ballot access cases starting with Williams have to be OVER-RULED -- put in the nearest landfill.

EQUAL ballot access nominating petitions at EVERY general [ONLY] election.

P.R. and A.V. - NO primaries are needed.</description>
