On July 21, U.S. District Court Judge Dolly M. Gee, an Obama appointee, denied ballot access relief to Joseph Kishore, presidential nominee of the Socialist Equality Party. Kishore v Newsom, c.d., 2:20cv-5859.
The lawsuit challenged the California independent procedure as applied to the health crisis, because the entire petitioning period is within the time when the health crisis has been upon us. The law requires 196,964 signatures to be collected from April 24 to August 7. The twelve-page order says the plaintiff should have ignored the independent petition procedure and instead tried to qualify his party. That takes approximately 68,000 registered party members. The decision says that the new party procedure can be used safely, because Californians can register to vote on-line, or can change their party affiliation on-line.
The decision also says that hundreds of thousands of signatures have been collected for initiatives in California in the last seven months, but does not acknowledge the evidence that the overwhelming majority of such signatures were collected before the health crisis began. The decision does not mention the California state court ruling that extended the petitioning period for initiatives. Kishore will appeal.
How many local HACK judges are there – esp USA Dist Court party HACKS ???
Answer – Too many to count.

NONPARTISAN election of ALL judges via AppV – pending Condorcet.
I figured they would lose. Court should have granted at least some relief because of COVID scare.
Is California that worried about Trump possibly winning the state that they want all the commies to support Dementia Joe?
Dementia Trump has zero chance in California. If he did, he’d be sweeping all 50 states or just about, so it would be a moot point regardless. The fascist-commies in CA gov are not worried about Dementia Joe, or any particular existing minor candidate for that matter, they just don’t want any other party to get any kind of foothold anywhere on general principles, regardless of ideology. They want a one party soviet/nazi style state with no real opposition anywhere and will squash it wherever it pops up, even if it’s no immediate threat, lest it grow.
Sorry — NO fascists allowed in CA — ONLY bolshevik commies — Lenin, Stalin, Mao types.
All others flee or get the 1938 Stalin treatment – show trials and purged — from records and photographs.
They are fascist too. Don’t let them fool you.
