Throughout U. The reverse is also true. The Federal Election Commission FEC is the only agency authorized to regulate the financing of presidential and other federal campaigns i. The states cannot impose additional requirements on federal candidates.
The statement of candidacy is the only federally mandated ballot access requirement for presidential candidates; all other ballot access procedures are mandated at the state level.
The candidacy statement authorizes "a principal campaign committee to raise and spend funds" on behalf of the candidate. Within 10 days of filing the candidacy statement, the committee must file a statement of organization with the FEC.
In addition, federal law establishes contribution limits for presidential candidates. These limits are detailed in the table below. The uppermost row indicates the recipient type; the leftmost column indicates the donor type. Presidential candidate committees are required to file regular campaign finance reports disclosing "all of their receipts and disbursements" either quarterly or monthly. Committees may choose which filing schedule to follow, but they must notify the FEC in writing and "may change their filing frequency no more than once per calendar year.
On February 20, , in a televised interview with Larry King, Texas businessman Ross Perot announced that he would seek the presidency as an independent candidate if his supporters took the initiative to get his name on the ballot in all 50 states.
Bush R and Bill Clinton D. Perot's support waned over the course of the summer, however, and in July he announced his withdrawal from the race. In October , Perot announced his re-entry into the presidential race. He participated in the presidential debates that fall and experienced a surge of support in the polls leading up to Election Day.
Ultimately, Perot won Perot won no electoral votes, however, and Clinton was elected president. Perot appeared on the ballot in all 50 states. On August 6, , the first Republican presidential primary debate of the election season took place in Cleveland, Ohio. At the beginning of the debate, moderator Bret Baier asked candidates to raise their hands if they were unwilling to pledge not to run as third-party candidates in the fall, should they fail to win the Republican nomination.
Donald Trump , the frontrunner at the time of the debate, was the only candidate to raise his hand. Following the debate, Trump continued to refuse to rule out a third-party or independent run if he failed to secure the party's nomination. However, on September 3, , Trump signed a party loyalty pledge affirming that he would endorse the ultimate Republican nominee and forgo an independent or third-party run.
Describing his bid for the Republican nomination, Trump said, "We have our heart in it. We have our soul in it. According to The Wall Street Journal , "GOP analysts said they had never heard of such a pledge being used in modern elections, and questioned if it would be binding or survive a legal challenge. Donald Trump does what is in the interest of Donald Trump. He has no loyalty to the Republican Party.

Independent candidate John Anderson announced his candidacy for president in April , and all requisite paperwork was submitted on May 16, The Ohio secretary of state , Anthony J.
Celebrezze, refused to accept the documents. Anderson and his supporters filed an action challenging the constitutionality of the aforementioned statute on May 19, , in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. The district court ruled in Anderson's favor and ordered Celebrezze to place Anderson's name on the ballot.
Celebrezze appealed the decision to the United States Court of Appeals , which ultimately overturned the district court's ruling the election took place while this appeal was pending.

In a statement, Newsom said, "The disclosure required by this bill will shed light on conflicts of interest, self-dealing, or influence from domestic and foreign business interest. The United States Constitution grants states the authority to determine how their electors are chosen, and California is well within its constitutional right to include this requirement.

Jay Sekulow, an attorney for President Donald Trump R , also suggested the possibility of further legal action, saying, "The State of California's attempt to circumvent the Constitution will be answered in court. Legal professionals differed in their initial assessment of the legality of SB Adam Winkler, a constitutional law professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, said, "This new law raises some very interesting and novel constitutional issues.
You can imagine a host of other disclosures that states might want to adopt. If California could do this, some people would undoubtedly want to know whether candidates have ever been treated for a mental illness or denied insurance. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
On October 14, , the California Supreme Court announced that it would hear oral arguments in a separate challenge, on state constitutional grounds, to SB 27 no later than the week ending November 8, But article II, section 5 c embeds in the state Constitution the principle that, ultimately, it is the voters who must decide whether the refusal of a 'recognized candidate throughout the nation or throughout California for the office of President of the United States' to make such information available to the public will have consequences at the ballot box.
