Stephen A Douglas first ran for the House (but lost) when he was not yet 25.

That was also when there was thirteen long months between whan a Congressman got elected and was seated.  As long as he would have been 25 when he was sworn in, that would be fine.

A lot depends upon the State.  The Socialist Workers Party decided in all their wisdom to nominate a pair of candidates who are constitutionally ineligible. (The P isn't a citizen and the VP is too young.)  However, some States require that the candidates to whom the electors are to be pledged be eligible, so in those States the SWP is putting their 2000 candidates on this year's ballot.
