On February 9, a Connecticut state trial court heard arguments in Morris v Giesing, which challenges a state law that says no one can circulate a petition for a candidate to get on a primary ballot unless the circulator has been a member of the same party as the candidate for at least three months. The candidate, a Democrat, circulated his own petition, but all the signatures he collected were invalidated because he has only been a Democrat since December 2015. See this story. A decision is expected by Friday, February 12. The Defendant argued that there would be “chaos” if anyone could circulate a petition.
