Supplemental Brief Filed by Plaintiffs in Lawsuit for Voting Rights for Certain Residents of Guam and U.S. Virgin Islands

On March 19, the voter-plaintiffs filed this supplemental brief in U.S. District Court in Hawaii, in Reeves v Nago, 1:20cv-433. This case, filed last year, challenges the law that forbids former residents of Hawaii to vote absentee, if they have moved to Guam or the U.S. Virgin Islands. If a Hawaii resident had moved to a foreign country, he or she could continue to vote absentee in Hawaii.

The supplemental brief explains that the court could offer relief, if the law were to be judged unconstitutional. It was filed in response to a request from the judge.

  1. NOT ALL olde USA territories were treated the same.

    NOT ALL current occupied colonies are treated the same.

    NO FED equal protection clause — regardless of SCOTUS junk since 1950s.
