In the 2024 United States presidential election, different laws and procedures govern whether or not a candidate or political party is entitled to appear on voters' ballots.[1] Since election processes are decentralized by Article I, Section 4, of the United States Constitution, these laws are established and enforced by the states.[2] Additionally, there are often different requirements for primary and general elections, and requirements for primary elections may additionally differ by party.
Additionally, the filing requirements to appear on the ballot often differ between parties and independents, leading some independents such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to create a party to get on the ballot in states where the requirement is lower for party-sponsored candidates. Conversely, organizations such as No Labels and parties like the Libertarians and Greens will have their nominee petition as an independent in states where such a route is less restrictive. [3]
