I bet the Georgia Democrat party will cancel their primary and just have a caucus instead. That way here’s no state ballot or election board issue for them to deal with, not until the fall anyway.

These questions would still remain for the general election though. Only eligible candidates can be on ANY ballot.

So if Obama doesn’t prove his eligibility he will disenfranchise all of Georgia’s voters.

Not a piddly thing.

That is not as far fetched an idea as one might think. What people seem to lose in this discussion is the fact that a political party is nothing but a group of people who believe in a ruling system for the people. They decide who it's leaders will be. It is up to the several states to determine who is eligible to appear on their states ballots. The DNC can put forth Micky Mouse, again, but if that state determines MM is not qualified for the office sought than MM will not be printed on the ballot by that state.

Now in this particular case this ballot is for a political parties primary choice and not for a general election. This is a states issue and IMO opinion if GA ultimately says no than no means no, end of story for that candidate in GA.
