Three Libertarian candidates in Iowa running for the U.S. House will not be listed on ballots this November after a panel ruled they failed to comply with state law, a decision that could affect the outcome of at least one tightly contested race
The state’s objection committee, composed of one Democratic and two Republican elected officials, ruled 2-1 Wednesday in favor of Iowans who challenged the candidates’ legitimacy.
Democrat on the panel who opposed the candidates’ removal, State Auditor Rob Sand, accused his colleagues of political bias, saying in a statement that the decision was “a wrong-headed plot by Iowa’s uniparty to limit voters’ choices.”
One of Iowa’s four congressional races was decided by a razor-thin margin in 2022. Republican Zach Nunn, who was challenging incumbent Democrat Cindy Axne, won by less than a percentage point. There was not a third-party candidate.

Total shocker that the gop are doing whatever they can to fix and rig elections because without doing so they know they can’t win.
Yes I read those articles as well and I am always against it. Anyone should be able to run for office as long as they are able to.
are you sure you’ve got the link you meant to add to this? because that link goes to one on UK politics
You’re right, and now I’m kind of weirded out. The url mentions torys and mps, so I’d assume I scolled to far and the url got weird, except I’m 95% sure the thumbnail changed. My clipboard still has the quotes but not the url. And when I Google the quotes I get articles are very similar, but aren’t AOL.
Anyways, here is a better link if your curious.

These links are closer to what you probably intended
these are about nursing home policy not the Libertarian ballot issues though
