Ballot access for all other elections requires petition signatures from within the district amounting to 1% of the vote for that office from the previous election, but not more than 7,500 for a statewide election or 2,500 for a U.S. House District. Candidates for statewide offices can share a joint petition. Typically, 75 - 150 valid signatures are needed for General Assembly and 300 - 400 for state senate.
