I went out tonight with a veteran operative for Senator Ritchie to get Indy signatures for Congress....The rain mercifully ended the less than stellar three signature effort.
For a couple of decades, I have gathered signatures on various nominating petitions. I even became a notary so I could witness signatures from people in other parties than what I am registered in.
This whole process is a joke....The petition requirements for the minor parties are high and there really are no Independence Party operatives...Just people who call themselves chairman and act like they really represent something.....
It's all done by major parties notaries and lawyers.
These minor parties should just publish a rate card for the out of party authorization...And that goes for the WFP as well.

I think you are right that few people understand it. I never gave it a thought that someone had to get all those signatures until you started talking about it on here. The law needs to be changed to a new process.
