Head Matter:
W. Lowell BRAY, Jr., et al., Appellants, v. Ken DETZNER, as Secretary of State of Florida, Appellee.
No. 1D11-5548.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
Nov. 16, 2012.
Joseph W. Little, Gainesville, for Appellants.
Daniel E. Nordby, General Counsel, and Ashley E. Davis, Assistant General Counsel, Florida Department of State, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Appellants raise several challenges to the constitutionality of qualifying fees for unopposed judicial candidates. See § 105.031, Fla. Stat. We reject those arguments. We write to specify that in considering appellants' equal protection claims under the Florida Constitution, we apply the rational basis test. See Adams v. Askew, 511 F.2d 700 (5th Cir.1975).
AFFIRMED.
WOLF, VAN NORTWICK, and LEWIS, JJ., concur.
