1. At least the deadline was not the day after the 2016 or 2018 Election Day.

   EQUAL ballot access tests for ALL INDIVIDUAL candidates for the SAME office in the SAME area

   — much too difficult for the many MORON ballot access lawyers and the much worse MORON HACK judges since 1968 Williams v Rhodes

   — 50 years of TOTAL MORONS at work.

2. Richard,
   With Top two in California, what is even the point of this?

3. @JB,

   California does not let candidates express their true party preference. It only permits candidates to state their preference if it is for a “qualified party”. In California, candidates may not express unpopular views. The government protects its citizens from being confused by alternative views.

4. TYRANT regimes prevent views that are unpopular with the tyrants

   — by death purges — see Stalin and Hitler regimes.

   Is JR the same JR advocating top 2 primaries in other posts ???

5. Jeff, the fact that new parties can’t qualify to have enable their candidate-members have a ballot label (other than “party preference: none”) means that the California top-two system is very vulnerable to a legal challenge. This is a new opportunity, thanks to the legislature moving the primary for all office, in all election years, from June to March. It’s the March primary that makes the deadline so early.

   Now takes a major army of folks [or RW] to keep up with the machinations of ALL the HACKS

   — legis, exec, judic — LEJ

9. About 20-35 percent of the voters vote ONLY in USA Prez election years —

   due to the de facto MONARCHY Prez in the USA –

   — ALL other officers === useless/trivial

   — results
   — UN-declared USA foreign WARS
   — terrorized USA Atty Gens, Marshals and Dist Attys – subject to instant removal/purge.
   — PREZ MORON HACK USA judges – esp in SCOTUS
   — kowtow gerrymander HACKS in the USA Congress.

10. Richard, Thank you for the informative reply. Sounds like either the legislature tripped over their incompetent selves, or someone landed a jiu-jitsu move on them… or both!

11. @JB, RW,

    The constitutional principles for Top 2 are sound, and the statutory implementation in SB 6 was sound. Debra Bowen who was SOS, and an ambitious political hack who had been term limited.from the senate, implemented the regulation that denied candidates to have expressed their party preference on their affidavit of voter registration which from subject to perjury prosecution. She later talked the legislature into changing the statute. It is quite poosible that the unionized staff at the SOS deliberately sabotaged the bill.

12. What percent of the New Age robots in ANY State legislature read ANY bills ???

13. ALL SCOTUS ballot access cases since 1968 are arbitrary LAWLESS tyrant JUNK —

    SCOTUS HACKS being a super-legislature.

    Same stuff in other legal subject areas.

    Should be nonstop IMPEACHMENTS to stop the super-legislature machinations.
