Answer:
at least 5 percent of the vote during the election.
Explanation:
According to the Federal Election Commission in the United States of America, it is stated that "Minor party candidates (nominees of parties whose Presidential candidates received between 5 and 25 percent of the vote in the preceding election) may receive public funds based on the ratio of their party's vote in the preceding Presidential election to the average of the two major-party candidates in that election."
Hence, it can be concluded that Minor-party candidates may qualify to receive public funds after the election if they win "at least 5 percent of the vote during the election."
