Congressional Candidate Still Tussling with South Carolina Democratic Party

Brian Doyle, a candidate for U.S. House in this year’s Democratic primary, is still maintaining his federal lawsuit against the South Carolina Democratic Party. Doyle is an ex-felon. Originally, the party refused to let him file to run in its primary. He then sued the party. The case is called Doyle v South Carolina Democratic Party, 3:10cv-203.

Then the party relented and let him file to be on its primary ballot, but the party continued to refuse to list him on its web page, in the section that lists Democrats running for Congress. Judge Henry Floyd asked the party to respond in writing why it was not listing Doyle. Now the party has listed Doyle, and provided contact information for him, on its web page. But the party still refuses to list Doyle’s picture (it does show a picture of the other congressional candidates) and it still doesn’t mention Doyle’s web page. So the dispute continues.
