[EL] Question About Legal Status of Primary Write-In Candidates

[Carl Klarner]

Hi All,

Does anyone know of a good source regarding state laws pertaining to
write-in candidates in primary elections?  A compendium of state laws
would be great, but I understand such a list probably doesn't exist.

What I need to know is, if a primary is otherwise uncontested, and a
write-in is running, do they then go on to the general election to
represent that party?  This appears to vary by state.

Thanks,

Carl
