On July 12, the New York State Board of Elections informed the U.S. District Court, Eastern District, that it has decided not to appeal Credico v New York State Board of Elections. The Board had earlier said it would appeal, and had obtained an extension of time to write its brief.
Credico is the decision, handed down on June 19, that struck down New York’s discriminatory law regarding which candidates may be listed twice on general election ballots. The law struck down said that if two ballot-qualified parties nominate the same person for any particular office, that candidate is listed twice on the ballot; but if two unqualified parties nominate the same person, that candidate can only be listed once.
The decision is valuable as a precedent that even if a ballot access burden is not severe, it is still unconstitutional if there is no genuine state interest in the discriminatory policy.
The robot party hack SCOTUS folks invent new adjectives and adverbs out of thin air all the time
*severe*, etc.
— to show how STUPID they are.
The adjective of interest in 14th Amdt, Sec. 1 is EQUAL.
Each election is NEW – much too difficult for the SCOTUS party hack MORONS to understand.
