National Review Article Says Rand Paul Will Likely File Ballot Access Lawsuit in 2015 if Kentucky Legislature Won’t Change Law

This National Review article says U.S. Senator Rand Paul is likely to file a constitutional ballot access lawsuit in 2015, if the Kentucky legislature doesn’t change the law before then. The current law does not permit anyone to run for two offices simultaneously. Paul would almost certain desire to run for both president and U.S. Senate in 2016.

  1. Note 14th Amdt, Sec. 2 — Prez Electors

    ANY memories of the horrific Civil WAR in KY – esp. in 1861-186 ???

  2. So could other candidates in other states sue to run for two offices at the same time in states that limit that?

  3. Kentucky’s manner regulation is a legitimate enforcement of

    Article I, Section 6

    “… no Person holding any Office under the United States, shall be a Member of either House during his Continuance in Office.”

    since it prevents election of a person who was not qualified to hold both offices simultaneously.
