Unless you have money or connections you may never get on the ballot. Then to win it takes an average of 1.5 million dollars. CA has a filling fee which is $1,740. If not for that I would never get 2k signatures. Saving that much hurts on a fixed income. Some may never b able to.

Of the people, by the people and for the people does not really describe our system if so many may never even have a chance to get on the ballot. We need fair elections then maybe we can have fair laws.

@JustSchmeltzer you have a background in election funding reform, right? -
I do but this is for ballot access. It isn't very difficult with a few volunteers. You can see challengers pop up all the time. Hell, AOC was a bartender and she got on, and NY laws are THE worst for ballot access.
