The Florida Democratic party is suing the state and Ralph Nader to keep him off the November ballot, saying that the Reform Party's nomination process was a sham.

The suit says the Reform Party is not a viable political party and that Nader was never nominated at a convention, which is required by state law to get on the ballot. ..

The Democrats say the Reform Party nominated Nader during a conference call last June and then held a Maddox also says the Reform Party is just a loosely organized group of people. "It would be the same if a bunch of my buddies that I watch football with got together and said we are going to nominate you for president."

The Reform Party submitted its paper work to the state election officials Tuesday to get Nader on the ballot. The lawsuit also names Secretary of State Glenda Hood and Gov. Jeb Bush, who must certify the ballot.
