On April 29, U.S. District Court Judge Analisa Torres was assigned to the lawsuit filed by Andrew Yang. The issue is whether the New York order cancelling the presidential primary violates the U.S. Constitution. Torres is an Obama appointee. Yang v New York State Board of Elections, s.d., 1:20cv-3325. This lawsuit will move very fast.

New York cannot creditably claim that cancelling the presidential primary makes anyone safer, because New York is holding its primary for non-presidential office on June 23.
