Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
Presidential qualifications are governed by Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution.
Because the process of qualifying for the election and having a candidate’s name put on the ballot varies from state to state, you should contact your state’s top election officer for more information. In most states, the Secretary of State is the official responsible for oversight of state elections, including the presidential election. Visit the National Secretaries of State website to locate contact information and web addresses for the Secretary of State from each state and the District of Columbia.You also may wish to contact the various political parties for questions regarding their candidate nomination process.
We hope this information is helpful.
