PER CURIAM.
Abigail Lauters and four other prospective presidential electors for
independent presidential candidate Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai appeal the district court’s1
dismissal of their pro se complaint. After careful de novo review of the record and
the parties’ arguments on appeal, this court finds no basis for reversal. See
Abdurrahman v. Dayton, 903 F.3d 813, 816 (8th Cir. 2018) (standard of review).
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

1 The Honorable John M. Gerrard, United States District Judge for the District
of Nebraska.
