More Democrat shenanigans.
You didn’t supply a link?!
In New York, it is the color of the ink of the signatures.
Since the Republicans are of no consequence, they use these tricks to keep non-establishment Dems off the primary ballots.
State? Country? Planet?????
This certainly helps inspire confidence in the democratic process.
1) If you ever reference something "attached", staple it, even if the staple is removed the holes are permanent; and
2) Always sign in any color but black, blue is preferred. This was before the advent of the inexpensive color copier but it still holds true; it is much harder to forge a signature in another color on a document.
Sorry, but if the rules say attach, then staple the darn thing so that there can be no questions.
