Thanks to Richard Winger of Ballot Access News for this post.

On June 26th, the California Assembly Appropriations Committee passed SB 27 by a Vote of 11-4.

This Bill would keep Presidential Candidates Off the Presidential Primary Ballot if they Don’t reveal their Income Tax Returns for the last Five years.

The Bill does Not affect Write-In Candidates in Presidential Primaries.

If it is Signed into Law and Not Invalidated by Courts, probably President Trump will file as a Write-In Candidate in the California Republican Presidential Primary in 2020.

Richard thinks this would probably cause Millions of Voters to Cast a Write-In Vote, which in turn would make Election Administration quite difficult.

In the 2016 Republican Primary, Trump received 1,665,135 Votes.

It Costs more Work and Money to Count Ballots with Write-Ins, than it does to Count Ordinary Ballots.
