OK: just the main parties?

TommyC1776:
How come sometimes Oklahoma just has the 2 main candidates on the ballot more than any other state?  it seems that way.

Adlai Stevenson:
Oklahoma actually has quite a tradition of strong third-party candidates, just look at the 2004 Senate, 2002 Governor, 2002 Senate and 1994 Governor races on the Atlas.

draconian ballot laws.

Joe Biden 2020:
A lot of those third parties (not independents) are not recognized in the Sooner State.  The exception would be the Constitution Party, but even that never has enough signatures to get on the ballot.  Oklahoma, in any level, never has any third party candidates on the ballot other than Independents and Indies have trouble themselves on our federal ballots.  Ralph Nader was never on Oklahoma ballots in either 2000 or 2004 and he ran as a Green in 2000 and Indy in 2004.  Ross Perot, I believe, was on the ballot in 1992, because my late paternal grandmother voted for Perot then, but she died in March 1996, but I don't think Perot was on the ballot in 1996.  He may have been, I'm just not sure.
