Unconstitutional


Maybe, maybe not. I don’t know of any part of the Constitution that requires a state to put someone on the Presidential ballot. The slave states in 1860 didn’t have Lincoln on the ballot, so it’s a Democrat tradition. Republicans weren’t on the last two California Senate election ballots and write-in votes were not allowed.

“Republicans weren’t on the last two California Senate election ballots”

That’s because in six of the last CA state senate election contests (2018) the Republicans didn’t even bother to run a candidate.

Basically the CA state GOP has surrendered to the Democrats.

Maybe you should run for the CA state senate next time just so your local Republicans have someone to vote for?

The worst thing that could happen is you might win.

It’s a law aimed at a specific person. It fits the constitutional definition of a bill of attainder.
