More states have been added to the State Rules page. Most of this information is online.  It just takes time to find the information and do the cut and paste. I’m still amazed at how much work must be done to get a person eligible as a write-in candidate on a ballot.

Only day one of this effort to document the requirements for write-in candidates in all 50 states and already I’ve come across two states (Alaska and Arizona) that require a candidate to file letters of intent or other documentation before their votes will be counted in the general election. And in the case of Arizona, if the candidate ran for the same office in the primary election, but did not get their party’s nomination, they can’t file as a write-in candidate for the same office.

Hmm, I already questioned the so-called democratic process in the primary season, but do we really need all these rules?
