Kansas State Court Judge Keeps ACLU Lawsuit on Voter Registration Forms Alive

On August 26, a Kansas state court denied Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s request to dismiss an ACLU lawsuit concerning voter registration forms. See this story. After Kobach lost in federal court on whether he could force the federal government to change its voter registration forms used in Kansas, he had set up a dual registration system, in which voters who used the federal form could only vote for federal office, not state or local office.

The Kansas ACLU and some voters then sued, and Kobach asked the court to dismiss the case, but his motion was denied. Now there will either be a trial, or possibly the same judge will rule that the dual registration system violates Kansas law. When Kobach set up the dual registration system, there was no election law in place authorizing him to do that.

  1. Do the robot gerrymander hacks in ANY Legislature pay any attention to court stuff ???

    P.R. and nonpartisan App.V.

  2. On the substantive point of the SOVEREIGNTY of each of the 50 States —
    Since when is there NO power in each State to demand EVIDENCE / PROOF that a person claiming to be a State Elector-Voter is, as a matter of constitutional LAW, a citizen of the USA and legally reside in such State ???

    I.E. more and more LEGAL INSANITY in SCOTUS and the lower courts — to be *politically correct* of course — esp. since 1993 with Prez. Clinton.

    I.E. Will the Trump mouth set off Civil WAR II — sooner rather than later ???
    — in order to get a government of LAW and NOT politically correct HACKS.
