Georgia Ballot Access Rehearing is Still Pending in 11th Circuit after 38 Days

The 11th circuit upheld Georgia’s 5% petition requirement for independent and minor party candidates (for U.S. House) on March 22, 2010, in Coffield v Handel. Faye Coffield asked for a rehearing before the full 11th circuit on April 9. That request is still pending. Most petitions for rehearing are denied within 30 days of the request, but this one has been pending for 38 days.
