Quote
"Monetary deposits should be of a sufficient amount to discourage frivolous political parties and independent candidates, but should not be so high as to prevent legitimate political parties and independent candidates from obtaining ballot access. Additionally, monetary deposits should be refundable upon receiving a certain number or percentage of voters. The threshold required for a refund should be reasonable."
