On May 19, the Pennsylvania League of Women Voters filed a federal lawsuit against the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. The complaint can be seen here. It alleges that justices of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court entered into secret meetings with legislative leaders, bargaining with those leaders to increase judicial pay. In exchange, the justices were to decide the outcome of certain pending cases in a way that would be pleasing to legislative leaders. Thanks to Howard Bashman’s How Appealing for this news.
Both the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and the Pennsylvania legislature, have been resolutely hostile to minor party and independent candidate ballot access, for decades, but especially in this decade.
Disgusting.
Its long past the time to buy rope. Invest in toilet paper and ammunition.
This is good news and part of a great plan. Kudoes to the League of Women Voters. I hope they take the debates back next.
Power to the people! Good work in rousting out this information. So many Pennsylvania leaders forget that they are supposed to be working for the citizens of PA, rather than running an organized dictatorship. Opposite of socialism, processes of this type put the people in charge over their government, as it should be. It will be interesting to see how the leaders respond.
Unbelievable!
Has anyone also sought to impeach these so-called justices?
