Scrutinizing Federal Electoral Qualifications
Scrutinizing Federal Electoral Qualifications DEREK T. MULLER* Candidates for federal office must meet several constitutional qualifications. Sometimes, whether a candidate meets those qualifications is a matter of dispute. Courts and litigants often assume that a state has the power to include or exclude candidates from the ballot on the basis of the state’s own scrutiny of candidates’ qualifications. Courts and litigants also often assume that the matter is not left to the states but to Congress or another political actor. But those contradictory assumptions have never been examined, until now. This Article compiles the mandates of the Constitution, the precedents of Congress, the practices of states administering the ballot, and judicial precedents. It concludes that states have no role in evaluating the qualifications of congressional candidates—the matter is reserved to the people and to Congress. It then concludes that while states have the power to scrutinize qualifications for presidential candidates, they are not obligated to do so under the Constitution. If state legislatures choose to exercise that power, it comes at the risk of ceding reviewing power to election officials, partisan litigants, and the judiciary. The Article then offers a framework for future litigation that protects the guarantees of the Constitution, the rights of the voters, and the authorities of the sovereigns.

BOSTON-Black Students Have Braved Racist Abuse to Attend the NAACP, Which Has Been in the Forefront of the Fight for Desegregated Education
DECEMBER 19, 1975 25 CENTS VOLUME 39/NUMBER 47 A SOCIALIST NEWSWEEKLY/PUBLISHED IN THE INTERESTS OF THE WORKING PEOPLE [The following statement was re leased December 10 by Peter Camejo and Willie Mae Reid, Socialist Workers party candidates for president and vice president.] Early this morning racist opponents of desegregation fire bombed the office of the~ NAACP in Boston. The home of a Black minister was also fire bombed. The terrorists struck in retaliation against yesterday's decision by a federal judge to take South Boston High School out of the hands of the Boston School Committee, which has done everything in its power to block court-ordered desegregation.
