Hello, I've been a daily "lurker" since 11/2000 but just recently registered. I have a question and am wondering if anyone can clarify this issue: today Mark Levin (via Sean Hannity) said this issue has to stop with the NJSC, it's a state issue that cannot be decided by SCOTUS. Yet it seems to me that if it's an election for a Federal position, the U.S. Senate, SCOTUS could ultimately have a say in the matter. I'm hoping the NJSC will do the right thing and it wouldn't be necessary, but after 2000 I'm expecting just about anything to happen. Thoughts? Thanks.

I have a lot of respect for Levin, but lawyers are like economists. Ask ten of them a question and you get eleven answers.

Of course the Forrester camp can go to the SCOTUS if the NJ Supremes rule against them. However, the SCOTUS may say they have no jurisdiction. I doubt that.

There are a number of issues that could be brought, equal protection being one of them.
