Not much subtlety to Judge Change, is there? She lets Brown get away with evading service, then later invokes the 16-day rule to keep him in the election. I can see why Gray Davis liked her.

Didn't matter - no preliminary injunction was forthcoming to prevent the counting of Brown's votes - voting already began, and any further remedies can come post-election. No judge, no where, will step into that minefield, especially after the SCOTUS's clear language that interfering in elections was something that courts were to avoid.
