Doesn't a vote for a U.S. Senator count as a federal election?
This has nothing to do with the Foley scandal. If there was no scandal but he happened to die in an accident after the replacement deadline, the scurrilous Rats would be doing the same thing.
Good Job!
I disagree. Conservatives are not stupid.The ones who vote know he is not on the ballot anymore and that negron is.We are dealing with Conservatives not the dumb-masses of the demorat party.
Yes, SCOTUS has grounds to intervene, and maybe they will.
But they got really lambasted after they intervened the last time in Florida and reversed the SCOFLAw decision in the chad wars, and as a result (I speculate) they did not intervene a little later in that egregious decision in New Jersey that put Frank Lautenberg on the ticket contrary to New Jersey law.
I'm hoping they'll intervene, but it's a judgment call, because they get far more cases than they can possibly handle.
This applies only to what goes on inside the polling place. Outside the polling place Reps. are free to hand out whatever information they wish.
bttt
"But, how can she say they can't even pass out notices, presumably off the polling grounds, to let voters know?? "
They can't. Beyond the 50 foot or whatever limit is set, Reps. can hand out whatever information they wish.
