Unbeknownst to most Americans, our ballot access laws actually TAKE AWAY voters’ choices.  The extreme disparity of the burdens placed on new or "third" parties vs. the two "major" parties in the US has no parallel in any other democratic nation in the world. 

The map below shows the Green Party's ballot access status for 2016 (the Presidential election).  As of July 2015, we are on the ballot in 20 states, reaching 55% of the population.   In play for 2015 is 9% of the population.  In 2016, we'll be fighting for another 26% of the population.   About another 10% of the population lives in states with the most challenging ballot access laws.

Our Ballot Access Committee, along with local Greens, is working hard to get the Green Party on the ballot in as many states as possible for our Presidential candidate.    If you would like to support these important efforts, please consider donating to the Ballot Access committee here, or making a general donation to the Green Party here.
