What it does

The Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits the election of any person to the office of the President more than twice. Under existing state law, each qualified political party is required to notify the Secretary of State of the names of the party's nominees for President and Vice President on or before the 75th day before a presidential general election. Existing law requires the Secretary of State to cause the names of each party's nominees for President and Vice President to be placed upon the ballot for the election.
