Exactly! The law applies specifically to this office and Brown didn't do his homework prior to filing candidacy papers for AG. Its not the voters fault he's ineligible; its his fault if their votes don't count because he broke the law. And the AG is the state's top law enforcement officer and it wouldn't be right to have someone serve who is above the law, right? I can see only one way the courts can rule and that's not good news for Brown. Precedent and case history aren't on his side here.

Well. I won't put it past the California establishment (including the courts) to say that Brown filed in good faith and therefore, in the interests of California and competitive elections, they'll let him run anyway and let the people decide if his lack of qualifications is really an issue or not.
