Democrats have filed suit to keep Ralph Nader off the ballot in Arizona. By adding Hispanic Peter Camejo to his ticket, Nader hopes to boost support in several Western states. Democrats have countered this move by involving the courts, something they've claimed to stand against since the Supreme Court's ruling in the 2000 Florida election controversy. The Democratic (?) Party contends that a large percentage of signatures on petitions seeking ballot access in Arizona are non-voters, non-persons, and felons.

"Too many of these very active liberal Democrats who call themselves progressives are really disgracing themselves," Nader remarked on Monday regarding Democratic Party intimidation efforts. "When they meet the moment of truth as to whether they are going to stand for the right of candidates to speak … they turn authoritarian and exclusionary."
