Attorneys for Arizona ask for More Time to File Brief in Case Over Discriminatory Voter Registration Form

The Libertarian and Green Parties are currently suing Arizona in federal court, over the state’s new voter registration forms, which list only the Democratic and Republican Parties. Voters who wish to register into any other party, qualified or not, must write-in its name on the form in a very small space. The lawsuit is Arizona Libertarian Party v Bennett, 4:11-cv-856, and was filed last year.

The state has obtained an extension of time in which to file its brief. It had been due on June 11, but now is due June 29. The state says it needed an extension because its legal staff is busy adjudicating challenges to the petitions submitted by various candidates.

  1. ANY copies of 14th Amdt, Sec. 1 in AZ ??? — magically having the word *equal* as in “equal protection of the laws”.

    Gee – was the 14th Amdt enacted in part to protect ALL Elephants (black and white) after the horrific Civil War in the ex-rebel States ???
