Eighth Circuit -- Libertarian Party of ND v. Alvin Jaeger

 Substantial burden of requiring primary candidates to score 1% of the vote to get on the ballot is justified by state interests.

No unconstitutional burden in limiting voters to one primary election.

As law applies equally, not equal protection violation.
