Here’s the lawsuit that was referenced earlier in the thread:

Sweet. Thanks!
My initial reaction is that the plaintiff cannot prove his claim contained therein that cross-over voting is illegal under MS election code 23-15-575 merely because the voters are Democrats.
MS A.G. said:
“Absent an obvious factual situation such as an independent candidate attempting to vote in a party’s primary, the stated intent of the voter is controlling.” (Cole, July 21, 2003, A.G. Op. 03-0316.)
The plaintiff may have a valid claim about the defendant’s actions as an elected official. I’ll have to look further.
thank you
