With ballot access eased, more third-party candidates seek office in Southern Illinois

- Molly Parker, Aug 22, 2020, Updated Aug 26, 2020

"With stringent Illinois ballot access rules for third-party candidates eased because of the pandemic, more candidates are seeking office this year, including in Southern Illinois.

“We’re running the biggest slate of candidates that we’ve ever run, and so are the Libertarians this time,” said Randy Auxier, a Green Party candidate for the Illinois House 115th District.

Auxier is running against Libertarian Ian Peak and Republican Paul Jacobs, who won the GOP primary in March."
