1Opinion of the Court
Tom Glaze, Justice.
On March 29, 1994, the deadline for filing as a party candidate, Delbert O. Lewis presented himself to the Secretary of State to file as an Independent Party of Arkansas (IPA) candidate for governor. The Secretary of State informed Lewis that the IPA was not a qualified political party as defined under Ark. Code Ann. § 7-1-101(1) (Repl. 1993). Lewis left, and no other person presented himself to file as an IPA candidate for governor. Lewis made no further efforts prior to the May 24 and June 14, 1994 primary elections to be an IPA gubernatorial candidate.
