Seven weeks ago, on June 29, Better for America asked for permission to file an amicus curiae brief in Level the Playing Field v FEC, U.S. District Court, D.C., 1:15cv-1397.
Judge Tanya Chutkan, an Obama appointee, still hasn’t ruled on whether the amicus can be filed. By contrast, when Sam Husseini asked to file an amicus in this case, his request was denied exactly two weeks after he applied. “Better for America” is the group that hoped to recruit an independent conservative presidential candidate.
They are still trying to find a candidate. No news yet.
Well there is some news. They have missed the deadlines in about 10 states recently.
The good news is that they can cast write in votes in almost all of them. Plus, other third parties are on the ballot in some of them if they are interested in changing nominees to get a higher vote for their parties.
