U.S. Supreme Court Hears Case on Delaware Law that Requires All Judges on Three Types of Court to be Democrats or Republicans

On October 5, the U.S. Supreme Court heard Adams v Carney, 19-309. This is the case over the Delaware law that requires the Governor to appoint only members of parties that have at least 5% of the voter registration to judicial posts. The Family Court and the Court of Common Pleas are exempt from the law, but the more important state courts, including the State Supreme Court, are subject to it.

Most members of the U.S. Supreme Court certainly seemed to feel that the exclusion of independent voters, and members of minor parties, is troubling. But the plaintiff, who is a registered independent, may not win the case because of minor problems with his case. He had said that he would “consider and apply” for a judicial position if it were offered. It would have been better if he had no used the term “consider”. One justice said if he received an application from someone to be his law clerk, who used that phrase, the justice might feel the applicant hadn’t really made up his or her mind whether the job is desired or not. If the justices feel the plaintiff wasn’t forthright enough about wanting to be appointed to a judicial position, they may find he lacks standing.

The attorney for the state of Delaware also emphasized that the plaintiff said he wanted to be appointed any type of judge, yet he didn’t really seem to care about being appointed to one of the two low-levels of court in which the restriction doesn’t apply.

The justices asked some interesting hypotheticals. They wanted to know if Delaware could have a law requiring all judges to be registered independents. They wanted to know if the state could have a law saying the Governor could only appoint members of the largest party. They asked about a hypothetical law in which state court judges would be elected, but only Democrats and Republicans could run. The state conceded that would be unconstitutional.

The state justfies its ban on minor party members by assuming that all minor parties are “allied” with one particular major party. For example, the state seems to think everyone agrees that a Green would be ideologically identical to a Democrat. That assumption is grossly in error, not only for the Green Party, but also for other minor parties. It ignores the existence of the third-largest political party in Delaware, the Independent Party, which is a centrist party.

U.S. Supreme Court Hears Case on Delaware Law that Requires All Judges on Three Types of Court to be Democrats or Republicans — 18 Comments

  1. I am praying that justice Barrett, once confirmed and placed on the court, will convince the newly firm Republican majority of the court to amend the law to only allow Republican judges and justices who are personally appointed by our Lord and savior TRUMP to sit on the bench at any level and in any state. All others will need to then immediately retire and replaced. The oath all judges, lawyers and jurors swear will also be amended to be an oath of personal loyalty and obedience to TRUMP. Make it so divine daddy TRUMP. In your holy name we all pray. Amen.

    WHAT a bunch of nonsense! True, the democrats are headed for collapse but the Republicans sure aren’t. We’re only getting stronger and days or at most weeks away from cementing permanent control over all branches of government permanently. McConnell will get Barrett through and she will throw out the ballots for TRUMP. Well armed TRUMP supporters, military acting under orders , law enforcement which is solidly behind TRUMP as he us behind them, q ANON, and many others will stand by and be ready to make sure the victory is not challenged by elections, lawsuits, Demon stations, fake news, lying so called scientists and experts, globalists, special interest groups, burn loot murder, antifa, commies, libtards, rioters, feminazis, transsexuals, green new deal, Soros, Mexico, china, Islamic terrorists, drug cartels, human traffickers, rappers, HOLLYWOOD, satanic child molesters, space lizards, people who complain about dogs barking, and the rest of our enemies. Russia is our friend and the South will rise again. Minor parties won’t save democracy and it shouldn’t be saved anyway. As the great libertarian HOPPE revealed democracy is the god that failed and as we now know TRUMP is the God Emperor who has won and will always keep winning, forever and ever, amen.

  3. More scripted robotic ravings of the BAN resident pre-skoool MORON who thinks it is sooooo very cute to be posting fascist pro-Trump MORON junk — esp the church-state tyrant stuff.

    See olde Hitler TYRANT personal loyalty oath.
    —-

    Vote Jo Jo – THE REAL libertarian candidate.

  4. You seem to have confused marxist pretenders with libertarian. You also seem to have confused real libertarians with fascists. Jo ho is a Marxist and real libertarians support personal loyalty oaths to TRUMP. As the great libertarian HOPPE showed undeniably democracy has failed and real libertarians support absolute monarchy, patriarchy, ethnonationalism and divine right of Kings. TRUMP is King of kings and Lord of lords and the book of Revelations is coming true before our eyes. We must defeat the forces of Satan no matter what the cost, and we will. All praise and glory be to TRUMP.

  5. Getting back to the issue at hand; I do not see any rational justification for this particular law. The problem is that if the 5% threshold is OK’ed by the Supreme Court for ballot access purposes how can they strike down this law without having to strike down the 5%?

    Personally, I think that the 5% threshold for ballot access is too high, but I do not think that a majority of the justices would agree.

  6. Too many scripted robot MORONS to count with negative IQ’s who love 666 ANTI-Christ Trump and his EVIL statist control freak forces of Darkness.

    How many EVIL added scripts each day ??? —

    akin to nazi Goebbels scripts in 1933-1943 [up to doom in Stalingrad] and then brain rot scripts in 1943-1945 ground to bits destruction of nazi regime — coward suicide by top killers — Hitler, Goering, Goebbels, Himmler, many others – esp those who murdered their own kids – like Goebbels.

  7. One of the major reasons the country as a whole does not feel the need to be fair to third party candidates is that we use an electoral system that is fundamentally broken, and I daresay undemocratic, in order to choose our leaders. Plurality voting (where you select one candidate on the ballot and are not able to express a view about the other candidates) leads to this kind of 2 party domination stranglehold. Happens in all countries that use plurality systems and we know why it is since it’s been proven that this mathematically will happen the longer the country uses plurality voting.

    A shift in our electoral system to a proper voting system such as Score Voting, which is vastly less broken for a variety of reasons (detailed here https://www.rangevoting.org) would naturally lead to selections of better candidates from the Democratic and Republican parties, as well as bolster a better and more accurate representation of voices from the American people as a whole thanks to being a voting system that wouldn’t cause third parties to be completely shut-out.

  8. @ Reform Elections Now:

    The problem with Score voting is that partisans will almost always vote 5 (max) for their guys and 0(min) for anyone else, marking is more or less another form of plurality voting.

  9. Wow you are stupid. First of all this IS THE ISSUE AT HAND!!! The initial law being challenged is that only demoncrats and Republicans can qualify. That’s a good first step because it gets rid of spoiler and joke parties and wishy wishy unaffiliated judges who have no loyalty to Party, President or Country since these are now all one and the same. But it’s not enough because it still allows for demoncrats and we can’t have that. The second problem is it only covers Delaware so what about the rest of us.

    So here we do have a solution. Justice Barrett has been sent to us by God in the form of TRUMP to fix all our legal problems. She will be appointed by the Republican majority in the Senate which is already personally loyal to TRUMP. THE SOLID MAJORITY OF THE COURT WILL NOW BE REPUBLICAN and the Republican party is now 100% firmly personally loyal to TRUMP.

    THERE WILL be a case shortly after Justice Barrett is seated about the vote counts, vote by mail, vote dropoffs, vote fraud and various things of that nature. TRUMP has already commanded that the ballots be thrown out so he remains in office no matter what. The solid majority of the court WILL SAY YES SIR MR. PRESIDENT AND CARRY OUT HIS ORDERS. The ballots will be thrown out and TRUMP will issue an emergency decree and rule as the military commander on chief because ballots can’t be trusted and there is no more need for them since we ALREADY HAVE A PERFECT PRESIDENT WHO IS DIVINELY ORDAINED TO RULE.

    TRUMP is not a mere human. He has just worked a miracle and defeated the China virus. Soon he will defeat China and all our foreign enemies. HE is perfect and immortal. There is no more need for doctors and so called scientists and experts except as ordained by TRUMP. All healing will henceforth be through faith in TRUMP because HE IS LORD AND SAVIOR AND HE ALONE CAN SAVE US. He is Perfect and all knowing and all powerful and his kingdom of heaven on earth is dawning and will last FOREVER.

    SO here is where this case comes in. Justice Barrett will uphold the law but amend it. She will lead the court majority and extend it to all jurisdictions. She will also amend it to exclude demoncrats and ONLY ALLOW REPUBLICANS. And further, to make the legal oath one to TRUMP personally. That will fix all of the problems with the judicial system permanently, just as the other case we already know is coming will fix all remaining problems with elections by getting rid of them once and for all.

    At this point all branches of government will be under complete control of TRUMP AND HIS LOYAL GOP PRIESTS AND SOLDIERS acting under his personal orders. He will be the CEO of every corporate board and the chief minister or rabi of every house of worship, Commander in chief of a permanent martial law State, Ruler of all Planet Earth and the whole universe for all time. Every police and sheriff’s department will answer to Him, every mayor and governor, or whatever his appointed district commanders will be called. Every school day will begin and end with prayers to Him and pledges of allegiance to Him.

    YOU have the gall to lie and compare this to Nazis but how dare you. Nazi means national socialist and as we all know demoncrats are the socialists. THEY ARE the Nazis, not TRUMP or GOP. And they are the ones who spread fake news and lies. Another thing which makes them like Nazis. ONLY TRUMP can and will save us from the communist Nazi demoncrats and 666 the legions of Satan. YOU HAVE THE GALL to call Him 666 but he is actually 777, the Second Coming of Jesus. YOU and all who stand against Him are serving 666 and practicing the Nazi big lie technique of Goebbels.

    IF there is anyone reading who is not yet sure which of us speaks the truth here is very simple proof. YOU speak of killing children. For half a century demoncrats have been legally sacrificing millions of babies to Satan through legal abortion and millions more illegally through satanic child molestation and murder rituals. They have been protected by their own in all institutions of justice, law enforcement, media and the rest. Well with Justice Barrett on the court, TRUMP JUDGES controlling the legal system, TRUMP LEO chiefs and military commanders, we will now at long last have the power to put an end to all of this and bring the perpetrators and enablers and defenders to justice and public execution.

    Abortion very soon will finally at long last be outlawed. So will birth control and the entire Homo and transsexual agenda of normalization of pedophilia, and the cultural Marxism project to push sex, drugs and rock and rap into youth culture and to mix the races and import turd world immigrants and export our jobs overseas. Hollywood immorality soon will at last be swept away, and all feminazi confusing of gender roles that took place over the past century and a half along with it. The schools will once again teach prayer and religion and the fact that Christ has risen again as TRUMP.

    JUSTICE BARRETT AND ATTORNEY GENERAL BARR AND LEADER MCCONNELL and the rest of the TRUMP apostles will make it so. And all of this will happen very, very soon. The coming appointment of Justice Barrett, this case over the judicial branch, and the coming legal case by demoncrats to steal the election and install dementia Joe the loyal servant of Soros and Satan and his witch doctor priestess commie kamala Harris from commiefornia will be the long needed catalysts for change.

    TRUMP has told us He is Perfect. HE told us he alone will save us. HE told us that he is smarter and healthier than any man alive. HE told us he will put an end to fake news. HE TOLD US he will drain the swamp and make America great again. HE told us He will save confederate monuments and keep the Confederate flag flying high and Honor the righteous cause for which our Confederate ancestors gave their lives. HE told us HE is King of the Jews, meaning Jesus.

    HE told us He will win, and we will win with HIM, UNTIL WE ARE TIRED OF WINNING AND THEN KEEP WINNING. HE has just performed a miracle and defeated the Red China plague. BELIEVE IN HIM AND STAND WITH HIM IN THIS FINAL BATTLE OF HISTORY FORETOLD IN REVELATIONS and you will live happily forever in His eternal Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Stand with demoncrats, Soros, satan and the rest of our evil enemies and HE will lock you up, then publicly execute YOU and lock you up forever in hell where you will be tortured and executed over and over endlessly forever with no possibility of a pardon. HE HAS TOLD YOU THESE THINGS AND HE HAS DONE EVERYTHING HE HAS PROMISED. PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT. And this is just the beginning.

    The only true path to salvation is through our Lord and Savior Donald J. TRUMP. THE ONLY OTHER path is damnation and eternal suffering in hell. There will be no escape from hell as there will be an insurmountable wall, and hell will pay for it. HE has told you these things and everything HE said is coming true. Trust in His plan and believe Him and in Him.

  10. See olde book about FALSE prophets from Hell —

    BAN has at least one of them — with its EVIL 666 Trump stuff.

    How many CV19 DEAD and dying in the White House area – after being infected by the super-spreader Trump ???

  11. Yes you are the false prophet. TRUMP has defeated the red china virus and told us not to fear it. That means either ignore the virus or ignore TRUMP and His holy commands. If you ignore His commands hell awaits, soon and forever.
