On January 12, three organizations each filed an amicus curiae brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in New York State Board of Elections v Lopez Torres. This is the ballot access case involving how candidates for Delegate to a Judicial Nominating Convention get on the primary ballot of major parties. All three organizations sided with New York state. They are the Republican National Committee, the Mid-Manhatten Branch of the NAACP, and the Asian American Bar Association of New York. All three are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear New York state’s appeal.
