This is a complete listing of candidates for the office of United States President for the March 12, 1996, Presidential Preference Primary Election. Each candidate listed here does not necessarily have a statement in the voters' pamphlet. To have a statement in the voters' pamphlet a candidate must purchase the space at a cost of $1,000.
While the candidates' statements appear in alphabetical order by their last name in this voters' pamphlet, you will notice that they appear in a different order on your ballot.
Under a new law, a "random alphabet" is drawn for every election. This random alphabet determines the order in which the names of candidates appear on the ballot.

D, X, M, N, E, P, Z, B, S, H, V, K, Y, U, L, J, G, C, Q, W, F, A, R, I, O, T
