Virginia Libertarian Lawsuit on Ballot Order Survives State’s Motion to Dismiss

On September 15, U.S. District Court Judge Robert E. Payne denied Virginia’s request to dismiss the Libertarian Party’s lawsuit challenging Virginia’s law on the order of candidates on general election ballots. The law says the nominees of the qualified parties always have the top spots on the ballot.

There will be another hearing on October 28 at 2 p.m. No matter what happens, the case won’t affect this year’s ballot.
