New Jersey's election laws are likely different, or possibly the situation was different as well. I'm really not sure what situation you're referring to in regards to NJ.

What's also interesting is that in both the Carnahan case and Torricelli case, we are talking about the Senate. DeLay is House, and so was Patsy Mink. Mink died a week after the Hawaii primary and the Democrats demanded that she be kept on the ballot anyway for name recognition. She won posthumously.

The only common theme is that the Democrats get what the Democrats want.
