Nevada Supreme Court Suggests Special Congressional Election Ought to be Delayed

On May 31, the Nevada Supreme Court asked for supplemental briefing on whether the special U.S. House election set for September 2011 ought to be delayed. The Court must decide whether the lower state court was correct, when it interpreted the election law in special congressional elections to mean that parties have nominees. The Supreme Court of Nevada seems to feel this is too complicated to be decided quickly. Thanks to Rick Hasen for this news.

Nevada Supreme Court Suggests Special Congressional Election Ought to be Delayed — 4 Comments

  1. Are the party hack MORONS in the NV legislature unable to copy the laws of a rational State for filling U.S.A. Rep (and Senator) vacancies ???

    How many party hack gerrymander area robots are there in the U.S.A — Fed, State and local ???

  2. Hate to sound like a broken record (I’ve mentioned this before) but even in New York (where the NYS legislature makes the North Korean Juche look like a thriving democracy) the Governor has only to sign a “declaration of vacancy” and an election to fill the open seat takes place 60 days later.
