Florida Court Refuses to Terminate Lawsuit That Seeks to Disqualify Republican Party Primary Winner

According to this story, the lawsuit filed by one Republican candidate for State Senate in Florida, seeking to reverse the primary results, can continue.  The candidate who had won the primary had tried to persuade the court that the case cannot possibly succeed.  The candidate who lost the primary alleges that the candidate who won the primary violated campaign finance laws.

Florida is not the only state in which lawsuits are still pending, to determine which candidates will and won’t appear on November 2, 2010 ballots.  Other such states are Illinois, Maine, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Virginia.  Also the West Virginia ballot format is still being litigated.
