Oklahoma Ballot Access Hearing Likely Sep. 15-19

Bob Barr’s lawsuit against the Oklahoma ballot access law is expected to have a hearing sometime during the week of September 15-19. The case had been filed on July 17. It is Barr v Clingman, civ-08-730-R.

Oklahoma has not permitted voters to vote for anyone for president, other than the Democratic and Republican nominees, since 2000. The state bans write-ins, and has the nation’s only petition requirement for president (using the easier method in each state) that is in excess of 2% of the last vote cast.

  1. Richard,

    What do you think the likely outcome of this case is? Will it overturn a ban on write-ins?

  2. A pretty big ballot access story is the movement to have Bob Barr knocked off the LP ticket. Richard, as an expert in ballot access, is more qualified than anyone to tell us what exactly that would mean.

  3. ALL State write-in bans are a blatant violation of 14th Amdt, Sec. 2 (for males). Sorry females.

    One more BASIC point that the MORON party hack Supremes have screwed up.

    OK — one more violation of —

    Separate is NOT equal.

    Brown v. Bd of Ed 1954

    I.E. armies of MORON ballot access lawyers since 1968 doing and losing LOTS of ballot access cases for third party and independent candidates.

  4. Stop, Stop, Stop trolling!

    Brown v. Bd of Ed 1954 is not germane to any ballot access case.

    Go to law school. Learn something.

    Get a life.

    But stop prattling on with your annoying nonsense.
