In the
DISSENTING JUDGEMENT (pages 22-30), JUSTICE COLEMAN quoted three separate deadlines (page 28) that were
longer than 20 days in the Election Code, but yet they still decided AGAINST McDaniel.
The Supreme Court of Mississippi ignored the current Law, made up their own Law, and still stated that they had NO "authority to write into the statute something which the legislators did not write therein, nor to ingraft upon it any exception not included by them [Legislature].
What a FARCE!
Justice Coleman and Justice Lamar are the only ones on that Court that I respect.

Those deadlines were for contesting the “qualifications of a candidate”. The other judges didn’t think it applied to contesting the election result.

We gave the Republicans the House, what have they done with it?
Before that we gave them the Presidency [and the Congress], what did they do with it?
They dropped down in front of their friends across the aisle and wore holes in the knees of their slacks.

I gave up posting to that one. I'm beginning to believe the GOPe hired “Baghdad Bob” as their internet agitator...

Do you think
Judge Leslie D. King will be re-elected to his office? I don't.
After
screwing up this case so obviously, I'm positive it will be brought up again.

And the same goes for
Chief Justice William L. (Bill) Waller, Jr. who concurred.
Associate Justice James W. Kitchens is probably going tyo lose4 his re-election also, over this concurrence, because Mississippians will NOT put up with this CRAP !
Presiding Justice Michael K. Randolph isan;t in much better shape, because he tried to avoid the question by saying, it wasn't their jurisdiction to make the ruling.
I don't think he'll be re-elected either, just because of this ruling.
Associate Justice Jess Hays Dickinson (left side of photo),
Associate Justice David A. Chandler, and
Associate Justice Randy G. Pierce all chickened out of ruling on one of the most important cases in the history of Mississippi Illegal Votes in an Election.
So I don't think they will be forgotton or re-elected, either.

Only
Associate Justice Josiah Dennis Coleman and
Associate Justice Ann Hannaford Lamar will be re-elected, because they understood the importance of this case, and they had the guts to actually follow the Law AS WRITTEN.

No, actually the true message is: 'You need to sell yourself to the republiCrat plantation or the democrat plantation will win.'
Afterwards it`s: 'Now shut up, you conservative twit, and go sit in the corner till we need you again.'*nod* — in any case, I'm tired of their abuses.

I vaguely remember that but do you think that any of that would work on the crop we have now? My answer is Saxby Chambliss. He saw the writing on the wall. He has been catching hell for a few years now from constituents and he KNEW he'd lose a primary. As it is now, I owe allegiance to no one - even one for whom I voted. They have one term to get it right, and with primaries no longer a perfunctory foregone conclusion, images of Chambliss and Cantor might just get some sorely needed action. They may think they're home free when the general election comes and we resign ourselves to "hold our noses" but the bar has been raised and they'll first have to get through that primary.

Only Associate Justice Josiah Dennis Coleman and Associate Justice Ann Hannaford Lamar will be re-elected, because they understood the importance of this case, and they had the guts to actually follow the Law AS WRITTEN. So you're saying the court should have ignored the deadline for contesting an election, and instead apply the longer deadlines for challenging the qualifications of a candidate instead. I wonder if you would grant that leeway to a ruling you didn't agree with.
Anyway, what I found in that analysis you linked me to was, yes, the deadline for contesting and election was 20 days. The author found some significance that the deadline wasn't indicated in both of two paragraphs, 921 and 923, that addressed the issue. Exactly how many places does a deadline have to be listed before it becomes effective?
I found no mention the other deadlines for contesting the qualifications of a candidate, which is what the dissenting judges quoted.
Look, I want Conservative candidates as much as you do, but conspiracy theories based on omissions won't get that done. Should the GOP close it's primary? Yes. Would your choice have won if the primary was closed? Again, yes.
Apart from closing the primaries, we still have to win the general elections. Winning the electorate over to Conservative values, or at least away from the leftist vote buying, is what it will take to do that. Even if the fraud vote is a factor, we still need to win over enough voters to counter it.
That's the what. Let me know when you're ready to discuss the how.

"... the deadline for contesting and election was 20 days"
On that particular issue, three judges DISAGREED with you, and three judges agreed with you, and three judges chicken out.
The three judges that agreed with you, had to go back beyond the law as CURRENTLY WRITTEN, and go DIRECTLY AGAINST THE LAW AS CURRENTLY WRITTEN to come to that FARCE of a conclusion.
So NO, there is NO DEADLINE to file a complaint!

Thank you for your opinion. Now, can we get to work in winning the electorate over to Conservative values?

As long as "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" are running the show, that'll NEVER HAPPEN.
We must PURGE the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" OUT of our Party, FIRST !

The same way Ronald Reagan did; talk over the RINOs and the LAME Stream Media.

We gave the Republicans the House, what have they done with it? Before that we gave them the Presidency [and the Congress], what did they do with it? Why should I believe that now, after a decade of giving them power, they will finally do my will? To assert that I must vote Republican, at this point, is to assert that I must reward unfaithfulness, deceit, and treachery.That's like saying, "Johnny stole $100 from me so I can't countenance him in my neighborhood; I'll let Ralph, the guy who raped my wife and killed my daughter live next door instead".

The more apt analogy is people in your camp, wearing your uniform, willfully commit an act of mass fratricide and then beg not to be put to death they promise this time they'll shoot at the enemy and not you — do you really want to keep them in your camp?
