U.S. District Court Hears Perry Ballot Access Case

The hearing in Perry v Judd was held on the morning of January 13, and is now concluded. Here is a story about the oral argument. The story describes the arguments made by each side, but says nothing about any comments or questions from the judge. The opinion is likely to be released quickly. One of the most interesting parts of the article quotes Governor Perry’s attorney as saying that Perry spent $91,000 getting, or trying to get, on various presidential primary ballots, and that Virginia accounted for $45,000 of that.

UPDATE: this story says that the judge will rule by the end of January 13. The story also mentions that the hearing lasted four hours.

U.S. District Court Hears Perry Ballot Access Case — No Comments

  1. All the candidates knew what the law was, and what they had do to qualify to get on the ballot. Ron Paul and Romney did their work, so why should the state of Virginia let those ‘loafer’ candidates come through the back door and be put on the ballot when Ron Paul and Romney had to earn their way onto it? If the judge overturns the law, then I have to call BS about the judge and if there was something afoul on his/her decision to overturn the law.
