So what you are saying is that the PA case was to the Federal court, and he should have gone to the PA court to have standing as a resident of PA?

I assumed Keyes went to CA because of the number of electoral votes?

This is all interesting.

Under California state law it is even easier to have standing than it is under New Jersey law. It is after all a very liberal state.

Keyes went to Ca because he was a presidential candidate (American Independents Party? not sure) and so his standing was as another candidate, he had the right to challenge Ozero’s qualifications regarding constitutional minimum requirements.

I sent this reply to 33 by mistake meant to send it to you.

Yes. According to Leo Donofrio, he went through the NJ courts to insure he had standing. Berg should have done the same thing. Leo was very careful in his filing. He gave Berg and Keyes attorney Gary Kreep suggestions on how to improve their filings.

Keyes also has a few interesting twists. CA has case law precedents where ineligble candidates have been thrown off the ballot. Eldridge Cleaver was 34 years old and needed to be 35. I think Keyes also picked his VP because he is a CA resident. I heard they also got one elector to join their case in CA too. Keyes teams need to raise money. Leo told them a few things to fix to amend their filing and told them to go straight to CA Supreme Court to save them a step in CA Superior court.
