07 JanAlabama Ballot Access

Cam Ward, who is a member of the Alabama House of Representatives, is planning to introduce a bill in the 2010 legislature to make it easier for independent candidates and minor parties to get on the ballot in Alabama. This is a great step forward in the state of Alabama. To make it easier for third party members and independent candidates to get on the ballot means more choice, more diversity for the citizens of this great state. It helps bring about a chance for people to vote for the person who really will represent them well, and not for the person who has a D or an R beside their name.

To make it even better, Cam Ward, or someone in Congress, should make it where third party members and independent candidates have the same access to the ballot as Republicans and Democrats. How about a better chance for representation Alabama? Will we see it?
