Another Lawsuit Over McCain Eligibility — No Comments

  1. It seems to me that if the case had no merit they would not have spent most of the brief saying what would the remedy be even if the plaintiff wins.

  2. It seems to me that there is no merit.

    The petitioners claim that they will be disenfranchised because their votes for McCain will not count if he is found to not be eligible for the office of President.

    Their error is that voters will not vote for John McCain but for a slate of electors pledged to vote for him.

    This’ll get bounced out quickly.

  3. For starters see Blackstone’s Commentaries —
