Didn't this appeal go to David Souter? I think he is the "justice" with jurisdiction over the Northeast districts.

Way to go, SCOTUS. Thanks for nullifying the primary process and spitting on the right to vote for military personnel, etal.

New Jersey FREEPers, you now know what it will take for a Republican in your ranks: an all out effort to defeat millionaire Frank Lousyberg and the Dash-hole idiots. And while you're at it, try impeaching any or all of those jackals on your Supreme Court, too.

Whew. I just cannot believe it, even though I knew it was coming. The law just isn't the law anymore.

I believe this was the NJ Superior court ruling, not the SCOTUS.

If we should defeat the Lautenberg in NJ, the Dems will be back in court Wednesday morning, screaming how it wasn't fair that they didn't have enough time, and that the NJSC should have not only allowed Lautenberg, but extended the election period to allow for a fair campaign.

Having Souter represent the circuit is a formality. There weren't enough justices who wanted to take the case.

Does this mean that only Souter decides if this case is to be heard?

[VRWCmember]

Not SCOTUS, but SCNJ. The SCOTUS refused to hear the case.

I "wonder" if they would permit the ballots to be changed if the Green Party candidate (or Reform Party candidate, etc.) were to pull out of the race or does this only hold for the "big 2"?
