On July 10, a state trial court in Nevada issued a ruling from the bench in Nevada Republican Party v State, Carson City 23-0000051-1B. The judge ruled that the Republican Party has no right to stop the state from holding a Republican presidential primary in 2024. The party will appeal.
In 2016, the Arizona Democratic and Libertarian Parties jointly won a similar lawsuit. They didn’t want a presidential primary either, and they prevailed. Thanks to Josh Putnam for this news.

You are the troll moron incapable of understanding English. Primaries don’t have an electoral college. That is a fact. Aside from that, the electoral college is not rotten, but AZ is.

The Republicans need to go to federal court and appeal on the basis of Eu v San Francisco.
The entire series of AZ comments was untranslatable, even with the help of several seasoned former Comintern members and apparatchiks. I even tried the ouija board to get George Orwell’s help with the Ingsoc, but he was busy playing pinochle with Anthony Burgess.
@AZ,
Let’s stipulate that you are not Tsar.
Priortize your 5 items. How would #1 on this priorty list be effectuated.
Did Anthony and George have a third? I don’t think you can play pinochle with two.
A third and a chair for a fourth, in fact: JRR Tolkien is at the table, and George RR Martin has a standing invitation.
Also, my apologies for confusion of Ingsoc and Newspeak.
I’d rescind the invitation to the American.
As would I, but it isn’t my table or my game.
The comintern ended in 1943. Where were you able to find seasoned members and apparatchiks?
There were several dozen in one Romanian nursing home alone. Besides, I use comintern broadly, to include cominform and comicon.
Besides Politburo Russian, Orwellian Newspeak, Burgess’ Nadsat, and Tolkien’s Black Speech of Mordor and Orcish languages, what linguistic parallels might prove of some possible help in translating the inscrutable AZZpeak?
Klingon, perhaps?
I was thinking Dothraki.

WHO IS THAT NUTCASE TROLL MORON WRITING TO ITSELF USING MULTIPLE FAKE NAMES IN 100S / 1,000S OF BAN POSTS ???
@WZ,
Nevada said that the Republican Party was free to ignore the results of the primary.
Is it a secret ballot if you have to make a public declaration of party affiliation, and are denied the right to vote because you are denied the right to vote because you refuse to declare affiliation or your affiliation is contrary to state orthodoxy?
Oy vey.
AZ ANSWERS ITS OWN EXISTENTIAL QUESTION.
Pat,
You mean AZ is the nutcase troll moron writing to itself in hundreds of thousands of BAN comments, right?
TROLL MORONS — ONLY ABLE TO HAVE PARROT RESPONSES IN THEIR 0.1 IQ ONE CELL BRAINS.
That would certainly explain your parrot responses, AZ.
@AZ,
What if a citizen were comatose? How could they prove they were alive on election day? How can you prove your USA citizenship?
You would propose an equal protection lawsuit to invalidate the electoral college? Who would have standing to bring this lawsuit.
Nazi-Deutsche could be another helpful language in the deciphering quest.
@Ralph,
AZ favors direct election of the USA President, like in Russia, Brazil, and France. If there were direct election of the president it is unlikely that there would be a series of state primaries.
Richard Winger has suggested that if the NPV Scheme became active, Congress would step in and pass a constitutional amendment to impose a single national electoral scheme.
The problem with bringing lawsuits would be that they would be heard before the same judges and in the same courts AZ continuously disparages. Even if he’s completely right on the merits, they would get laughed out of court. Kind of like what actually happened when he used to actually bring his lawsuits. So now, having failed in his moronic trolling of the courts, AZ trolls online for morons who are moronic enough to moronically troll courts on his behalf using their own resources. Not surprisingly, it has been a quixotic quest, with no morons that moronic in sight. Future prospects appear equally sisyphean.
Jim Riley,
What would that have to do with it? Presidentoal primaries are for the selection of delegates to national party nomination conventions. How do you think those delegates would be selected if there was a national presidential election, and why? I would guess they would still be selected by state.
I was unaware Richard Winger thinks that. Where has he said that? As far as I know, constitutional amendments have to be ratified by, currently, 38 states. The chances of that seem slim, do they not?
Sorry, I meant Nazi-Deutsch, not Deutsche.
Ignatius 1919,

@Ralph,
If the NPV Scheme went into effect it would be noticed that voters have different qualifications in different states, different registration requirements, different voting periods, different candidate lists, different requirements for a majority, different recount procedures, etc.
If the threat of the NPV Scheme were eminent, there would likely be pressure to pass a constitutional amendment to make everything uniform across state boundaries.
Congress would like provide for a national primary. This is no different than a legislature providing for statewide primaries for gubernatorial elections.
@AZ,
If the electoral college were to be abolished, who would abolish it?
Let’s keep this discussion to USA presidential elections.

ELECTING A PREZ IS A BIT MORE IMPORTANT THAN WORRYING ABOUT A BLADE OF GRASS CROSSING A STATE LINE ON A WINDY DAY.
If you take Politburospeak, Newspeak, Nadsat, Nazi-Deutsch, Klingon, Dothraki, Black Speech of Mordor, Orcish, and stir them all in a pot, you might get something a lot like AZZspeak.
AZZ is still peddling the dangerous fiction that “flyover country” is more fascist than the East and West coasts. Nothing could be further from the truth. He’s also still pushing world government – yes, really, – and cancelling the Constitution.
NPV scheme would be legally terminated in court. Meanwhile, states have many concerns besides presidential elections in coming up with election rules. 38 states for a constitutional amendment for national elections will not be found. I’d make a sizable bet on it.
AZ ??? I PITY THE FOOL !!!
@Ralph,
Why would a federal court stop implementation of the NPV Scheme?
Are you absolutely certain?
If Congress were to propose such an amendment, they would propose ratification by convention.
@AZ,
What is a real democracy legislature
Illegal interstate compact without congressional approval, among many other theories. 6-3 Republican appointed Supreme Court, etc. More importantly, it won’t get to that stage. But supposing it did, it’s a fairly easy way for the court majority to do the right thing.
But even supposing all of that fails, refer to balance of prior statement. And ratification by convention? Too many states and constituents will be rightfully opposed to any such dangerous proposition. It would be the final nail in the coffin of the Republic, and there are still plenty of men entirely serious in their oath to kill or die for same against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Chip,
Yes, but who would want to do all that stirring? Besides, the end result would still be gibberish.
@Ralph,
There have been other interstate agreements that did not require congressional approval.
What if the opinion said that a state could unilaterally use total votes for all states to allocate its electoral votes.
There are any number of reasons npv could be legally rejected. Interstate compact is just an example.
1. I don’t believe it’s likely to get to 270 electoral votes
2. If it does, it will probably be thrown out because of the composition of the courts. Interstate compact is only one possible reason.
3. Convention ratification still requires 3/4 of states. Whether legislators or conventions, 38 states won’t ratify.
4. Again, there are many reasons states have different election laws, voter qualifications, procedures, etc, other than presidential election. 38 states will not agree to nationalize all of that.
@Ralph,
The national popular vote will be pushed as the real result. Any variance will be claimed to be an error.
Ratifying convention delegates will be chosen by popular vote. Good luck campaigning to be a delegate on a platform that says states should be able to appoint electors by the Legislature or pasture bingo or claiming that the 17th Amendment was a mistake.
See the ratification of the 21st Amendment.
I don’t know what you mean about real result or variance or how that addresses anything I said .
I also don’t see why ratifying convention delegates would be chosen by popular vote. Constitution doesn’t specify, it could just as easily be chosen by legislature, appointed by governor, or for that matter drawn by lot like a jury.
I was in error about 38 states. It would be 34 in that case. But the larger point stands. The same people who elect those legislators and governors would elect the convention delegates if that is in fact how it’s done. Therefore, the amendment wouldn’t be ratified regardless of whether by convention or legislators.
