Primary ballot access megathread

[Mr. Morden]

I guess the Kentucky caucus deadline is today?  According to this:

http://rpk.org/caucus/

it looks like everyone but Gilmore has filed there.

Does anybody know how the Kentucky Caucuses will work???

Puerto Rico filing deadline yesterday.  Sent Puerto Rico GOP asking for list of qualified candidates for March Primary..  Dems do by caucus.

Bush, Carson, Trump, Rubio, Kasich, and Santorum.. Pataki also filed, but has withdrawn.  I heard back from the Puerto Rico Republicans.  There may be others.   Interesting.  No Cruz yet.

But the deadline has passed?  So if no Cruz yet, then he's not going to be on the ballot?

Maybe Puerto Rico's too "foreign" for Cruz, as he tries to convince everyone that he's not Canadian.

[Mr. Morden]

As I understand it, the deadline has just passed in Vermont.  As shown on this page:

https://www.sec.state.vt.us/media/701018/2016-Qualified-Candidates.pdf

all of the GOP candidates except Gilmore and Huckabee filed.  Unless one or both of them filed at the last minute, and they have yet to update the page?

I don't see WILLIE WILSON on the ballot.

[Mr. Morden]

Confirmed list of candidates who qualified for the Vermont ballot here:

Gilmore and Huckabee didn't make it.

Reading this thread, it all seems so random and unorganized. Seems like we're discovering deadlines as they hit us.

I will repost my chart later today.  It will answer your questions.

What is the 0 in your chart?  Not qualify?  Let take a look at Alabama for example, can you give me a link to the source?  Bush got a "0" in Alabama.


Edit: So for the states that the deadline already passed.  Is there a state where any of the big candidates (Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Christie, Bush) (and to an extend Carson, Kasich, Paul) failed to get on the ballot?

[Mr. Morden]

Today was the deadline for the Kansas caucuses.  Looks like all the Republican candidates except for Gilmore managed to file there:

According to that chart, Mississippi's deadline was the 15th. Any word on anybody missing out?

I don't know.  I just went to the MS SoS site:

http://www.sos.ms.gov/Elections-Voting/Pages/default.aspx

it doesn't list the candidates for president.  Not sure where to look.

That's not a surprise: MS's election system and reporting is still stuck in the 1800s.

Mississippi:
By December 15th, the SoS have to publish a list of "Generally recognized presidential candidates", by any criteria he wants.

That list was as following:
For Democrats: Clinton, O'Malley, Sanders
For Republicans: Bush, Carson, Christie, Cruz, Fiorina, Graham, Huckabee, Kasich, Pataki, Paul, Rubio, Santorum, Trump

If you are not on this list, you must find 1000 signatures by January 15. I assume no one was added.

EDIT: I assume the criteria used was "Taking part in a debate", it would fit the title of the list. One can assume than taking part in a debate makes you a "Generally recognized presidential candidate".

Paul is listed twice and Trump is omitted?

Glad to hear Jeb Bush made it in.
