HI might refuse and ask THEIR courts to issue an injunction. They might send over the usual bunch of tripe. They might even ignore it.
The Admin Judge could then buck it up to the GA courts, whereupon the process would begin anew. Yes, it would wind up in a Federal Court, IF they agreed to hear it.
This could as Team Obama already knows, could take many years. Real world? State election officials are the lowest rung on the the political food chain. They tend to do as they are told by more establishment figures.
I am afraid that Team Obama has engineered a political "Perfect Storm." There is no legal "Magic Bullet." It is absolutely crucial for Obama to leave office, his legacy permanently tainted by the question of legitimacy. It is, I fervently pray, that the SCOTUS will visit the question.
It all comes back to exactly what you said then. We need a SOS who will do what’s right, regardless of what the establishment tells him/her to do. And the right thing to do is to keep him off the ballot unless and until he proves he is qualified. If Obama wants to take years doing the lawyerly piddles it shouldn’t be any skin off our backs; just leave him off the ballot.
Every state should do that. But in order for HI to not just certify a copy of a forgery and that being the end of the story, the state SOS’s need to be aware of the evidence of crimes by the State of Hawaii itself so that it is clear that the credibility of the Hawaii government is shot, and any claims they make thus need to be cross-examined by examining the original, the microfilm rolls, the computer transaction logs, depositions from people whose claims contradict the HDOH, etc.
Are there different courts for criminal trials than for civil trials? We all know the 9th Circus for their legislating from the bench. Do they also hear criminal cases, or just civil cases?
