This stuff about special circumstances, because her current job was abolished is just a lame attempt at spin. Actually, the SOS term hasn't ended yet. Had the FL SOS office been abolished on July 15, there would be no need for her to resign. Since there is still time in her term, and the SOS office is still open, she is responsible for following the law, even when it applies to her.

The law as stated only allowed one remedy for not resigning. That was the automatic resignation from the date of filing.
The law said absolutely nothing about taking the person off the ballot, not counting votes or any other silliness. For a court to even hear this case is ludicrous. There is no basis in law for doing it. That is what summary judgement is for. Any judge that continues it, and damages her run for office is just making up law as they go. And I believe the Supreme Court of the state of Florida knows all about that.
