On June 24, a Connecticut state trial court refused to put Muad Hrezi on the Democratic primary ballot as a candidate for the U.S. House. He needed 3,833 signatures and submitted 4,950, but he didn’t have enough valid signatures. The law required all the signatures to be collected between April 26 and June 7. Hrezi argued that he would have qualified if he had received the blank petition forms on April 26 instead of two days later. But the judge said even though the e-mailed blank forms were not sent until April 28, Hrezi could always have come into the clerk’s office and picked them up physically on April 26. Hrezi v Merrill, Superior Court, Hartford, HHD-cv22-6156703-5. Here is the opinion.
