Write-In Information

Write-in candidacy for President/Vice-President is not allowed, except for in the following circumstance: it is permitted only for candidates who have been nominated by a party to replace a candidate whose name was already on the ballot, due to death or resignation of the first candidate. So voters can write-in the name of that replacement candidate for President or Vice-President, if this is the case.
