Primes

• Access Friction
  • In democratic politics, ballot-access laws, residency requirements, and debate-qualification thresholds tax new candidates that incumbents do not face.

    This sourceShows empirically that higher filing fees and signature requirements reduce candidate entry and deter minor-party candidates more than incumbents' parties — the entry-asymmetric ballot-access barrier in democratic politics.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
