Quite a while ago, Toricelli (The Torch) was ousted from his NJ Senate seat in a big scandal. It was not legally permissible to replace him due to the number of days remaining before the election. Nonetheless, he was replaced by Lautenberg who won.
What makes you think this time the Democrats won’t prevail?
The problem here is though, Dems don’t want a Dem on the ballot. Thats the point.
Rules are if he withdraws, he has to have good reason to and if he does, Dems have to replace him on the ballot anyway....They didn’t read the rules..
All moot anyway as Ballots have to start printing tonight. So they have no time now to mess about.
