(A) $ 3,125 is a YUGE barrier for Libertarians and independents without massive party money machines. My candidacy is a one–man–show. I do NOT have a dominant party political machine behind me. My 2022 "fundraising" was $ 100 from a friend. I'm also the web designer. (B) The Libertarian Party uses a convention system to nominate candidates. It is self–funded; we use NO public funds. Yet, these new filing fees would support both D and R (publicly funded) primaries.
I promise that I will govern and NOT slip into politics … I can't afford it.
