Natural Law

Third-Party Presidential Campaign Participation and Debate Access

Description

Natural Law functions as a third-party political group that gains eligibility for presidential debates after a District Court strikes down the Commission on Presidential Debates' 15% polling threshold rule. The Roosevelt Room discussion lists it among entities campaigns can no longer exclude, forcing White House staff—C.J., Bruno, Toby, Sam, and Josh—to factor it into strategy, stay motions, and Supreme Court appeals. This shift positions Natural Law as a stakeholder that disrupts the two-party debate framework during the Bartlet-Ritchie contest.
