As noted previously, on August 30, a U.S. District Court in Nebraska struck down that state’s ban on out-of-state circulators, which had been passed in 2007. The time for the state to appeal has now run out, and the state decided not to appeal. Thanks to Kent Bernbeck for this news.
Richard, considering that this ruling came from a US District Court, would this also throw out the out-of-state petition circulator bans which apply to initiative & referenda petitions in North Dakota and South Dakota?
The US District Court ruling in Nebraska doesn’t directly affect the similar bans in the Dakotas. But if anyone files a lawsuit against South Dakota or North Dakota on this issue, the Nebraska ruling would be influential. The Nebraska lawsuit had lots of strong evidence. A similar case against either of the Dakotas will also need real evidence.
Each State is a SOVEREIGN Nation-State.

Way too difficult for MORON Judges to understand.
Try having a U.S.A. citizen circulate ANY type of petition in places like Russia, China, Iran, North Korea — and see what happens.
