Just before the judges issue a ruling, the RNC should file a motion to change lawyers and start the proceedings all over because the previous RNC lawyer thinks he cannot win the case as heard.

Absentee voters have to vote twice? But that would be "confusing" to the voters, and that is what the Rats are trying so hard to prevent, right?
To: TonyInOhio
'Rat Justice helpfully points out other states allow candidates to be replaced up to day before election. :-(Under what circumstances? Did he get into that?
To: VRWC_minion
Only 1700 absentee ballots out of 18,0000 have been sent. court can order reprinting and resending of those sent. judge helpfully adds that a clarifying letter can be sent. Justices often ask questions about all of the relevant issues, even if some of those issues might be rendered moot by the resolution of other issues. The Dem point about the absentee ballots is legitimate. You can avoid disenfranchisement simply by resending ballots to all absentees, and counting only the new ones. That's assuming there is enough time to print them up and get them out while still giving the absentee folks enough time to return the ballont.

One Justice responds to 'Rat - "this case presents a new paradigm"
BUZZWORD ANTENAE UP
Paradigm? Uh-oh.
One Justice says this case presents A New Paradime?
In other words there is nothing in the statutes to fall back on so we will make our own decision.
At least that is what I think it means

This might play in the SCONJ. It won't work at the SCOTUS. It's almost unbelievable to listen to these judges. They sould like they are part of the DNC and they are having a strategy session on how to hijack the election.

New York law says failure to meet deadline is fatal; New Jersey statute does not. What does that mean.
Bad thing was she preceded the statement with "Let me give you a present."
But the good thing is the Dems lawyer was too dumb to understand the gift he was given.

If I was a third party candidate, I'd be screaming, too. Replacing a low-polling candidate with a higher-polling one at a date past the legal replacement date could severely impact their percentage received in the election, and thus their qualification for ballot access and matching funds in future elections. There's your equal protection clause right there.

They are.

One Justice responds to 'Rat - "this case presents a new paradigmAnd it seemed like at least one lady agreed with him. It looks like we have two votes. But based on him getting drowned out by the RAT cheerleaders it doesn't look good.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
AHA! Just gave the opening for the SCOTUS. They cannot extend Torch's (or his replacement's) term past six years. The fed's would surely have to rule on this.

I'm with you. I'll respectfully disagree with those who think the fix is in. We've seen the principles of the RATS already..."motive irrelevant"..."51 days doesn't mean 51 days"...I hope to heck the Pub lawyer says straight out, "What they're asking is for you to simply change the rules and allow it to be more favorable for them to win. There is no valid reason to change the ballot at this late date."

BULL ... what happen to every vote counts ... The VOTERS of New Jersy picked Torricelli ... That Fat Cats in the back room decided to OVER RULE the voters Hmmmm .... Wouldn't this mean that if Torch is successfully thrown off the ballot, we just need to find one RAT primary voter to sue for disenfranchisement?
To: Spunky
In other words there is nothing in the statutes to fall back on so we will make our own decision. Yeah--that's how I heard it too...travesty is right....

One Justice responds to 'Rat - "this case presents a new paradigm" The courts buzzword meaning, "goody, goody - we get to write another law"...

To: LisaFab
They are trashing New Jersey law; now they are safe to say this law is irrelevant and let them put him on the ballot.

The NJ Juctices are doing a better job presenting the RAt case than the RAT lawyer. They came from the same VLWC planning party at Hillary and Bill's.
