Description:
Ballot Access News is an independent non-partisan newsletter published by Richard Winger, a leading American lawyer, which provides information on 'third parties' and 'independent' candidates in American politics. In particular it focuses on ballot access laws in the USA and presents a critique of what the author regards as 'restrictive practises'. These centre on the difficulties independents have in participating in election campaigns because of legal restrictions. The web version of the newsletter contains the full-text of all editions from 1994 onwards. It includes coverage of presidential and mid-term elections and enfranchisement.
