The Second Circuit will hear Libertarian Party of New York v New York State Board of Elections, 22-44, on Tuesday, September 6, 2022. This is the challenge to the hostile 2020 election law changes that tripled the statewide independent petition and stiffened the definition of a qualified party.
A notable fact is that in the entire history of government-printed ballots, New York has never had a general election ballot with only two gubernatorial candidates, excepting only 1946, and also 2022 if no relief is obtained.
So even if they win little time remains to actually run a campaign. Congratulations NY you have successfully killed off 3rd parties. Sigh…
Too late for any 2022 relief —
gerrymander oligarchs get past yet another rigged election.
LP lawyers too stupid — failure to demand a NEW election in 2023 ???
Notice how the campaign finance law was used to shut down third parties in NY. The notion that some party other than the Democratic Party might qualify for public campaign finance money and “waste” the money they perceive as their entitlement was unacceptable to the Democrats.
Democrats are evil. Be like Trump, go GOP.
