To be in a Primary, candidates for both major party's file a Declaration of Candidacy with the State and then pay the Filing Fee.

Filing fees are so low in Oregon that it costs more to have petitions printed! ($150 for US Senator, $30 for Portland Mayor, Circuit Court Judge, $50)

Yes, it's different from state to state. Oregon has a better elections system end-to-end than any other state.

Now I see how your nomination and organization process differs from those in New York and Florida.

...and it was different when I lived in New Hampshire, Virginia, Maryland and Iowa. It's all per each state.
