Cochran Attempt to Strike Hosemann's Opinion on 20 Day Deadline Fails

Thad Cochran's attorneys failed in their effort to keep the Secretary of State’s statements on Republican Chris McDaniel’s appeal out of the record yesterday.

Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann has at least twice previously stated to the Clarion-Ledger that there was no deadline for filing a challenge for a statewide primary election.

Attorneys for Cochran filed a motion to strike Hosemann's statements from the record in the McDaniel appeal to the Mississippi Supreme Court. Judge Hollis McGehee heard arguments on the Motion in Mendenhall on Monday.

Hmmm. So the Secretary of State is on record stating that there is no deadline. So the dismissal based on some 1959 precedent was nothing but a sham.

One more twist in the 2014 election season!

Deadline, no deadline, doesn’t matter. MS people are too confused to take proper action.

The state law has been changed since the 1959 ruling that was based on the previous law, yes the ruling on McDaniel vs Cochran based on the 59 MSC ruling was a sham.

The judges in Mississippi are owned by Haley Barbour.

Haley has told the judges to run out the clock so that McDaniel cannot support any write-in effort.

McDaniel foolishly decided to fight in the State Courts, which is the battlefield of his enemies’ choosing.

In the end. . .we know what is going to happen.

Disgusted conservatives will sit on their hands, and not vote in the Senate race, and the Rat will be the Coch-roach. . .

They will just throw them away sadly. Childers has my vote if McDaniel is not on the ballot

With Childers you get a democrat. With Coo-Coo Cock you get a corrupt, senile, pork laden, big government, smoke filled room-boss picked liberal Republican, who has shown he will do anything to win regardless of the cost to the Republican party, the state of Mississippi and the USA. Either way conservatives lose in this election.

GOOD! The Dem nominee, Travis Childers is Pro-Life, Pro-Second Amendment and ANTI Same-Sex Marriage. Thad Cochran and Haley Barbour are low-life, scum bag bastards.

McDaniel foolishly decided to fight in the State Courts, which is the battlefield of his enemies’ choosing.

Unfortunately, when Doug Forrester tried to contest the dropping out of Robert Torricelli in New Jersey in 2002, SCOTUS refused to hear the case, saying that a Senate race was a state election.

It's true that SCOTUS was gun-shy after being criticized for their involvement in Bush v. Gore in 2000, but at least that case had the cover of national implications even though presidential elections are also essentially state elections for electors.

Therefore, McDaniel may be thinking that SCOTUS won't hear it, just like the refused in New Jersey.

One of the prognosticators said there is a 96 percent chance that Cochran will win. I know that sounds high, but MS people believe in incumbency, probably more than most other places.

You’ll have to ask him. As a kid growing up in Texas, we were all Democrats...... Truman-style Democrats. JFK was a Conservative Democrat. There are still a lot of old style
Dems who are “social conservatives” but economic liberals; i.e. feel that they are “for the working man” and the underprivileged.

I hope this makes sense.
