§ 5003 Political Party Registration Count

• •A new group trying to become a political party has 70 days after filing official papers to ask for help.
• •If they ask, the government will count people who said they support the group before the papers were filed.
• •This helps the group get enough supporters to become an official political party.

A group called 'The Green Team' wants to become a real political party.

They file papers to start the process. Within 70 days, they can ask the government to count people who already said they support 'The Green Team' before the papers were filed. This helps them reach the number of supporters needed to become official.
