It takes a minor party with enough money, organization and energy to get their candidate on the ballot. In order to get on the ballot , a petition with a large number(10000?) of signatures must be submitted to the election board or whatever before a deadline. It is also possible to conduct a write-in campaign, but very hard to win that way.
