In Reynolds v Sims, 377 U.S. 533, at page 535, the U.S. Supreme Court said, “The right to vote freely for the candidate of one’s choice is the essence of a democratic society, and any restrictions on that right strike at the heart of representative government.”
In Wesberry v Sanders, 376 U.S. 1, at page 17, the Court said, “No right is more precious in a free country than that of having a voice in the election of those who makes the laws under which, as good citizens, we must live. Other rights, even the most basic, are illusory if the right to vote is undermined.”
Justice Douglas wrote in Williams v Rhodes, 393 U.S. 23, at page 39, “A state has precious little leeway in making it difficult or impossible for citizens to vote for whomever they please.”
The persons who wrote the 14th amendment, section three, never imagined that the section could dictate whom voters could or could not vote for. The restriction in Section 3 concerns who can hold an office, not whether anyone can be prevented from voting for any candidate he or she wishes.

PERRY AND JAN 6 TRUMP GANG COMMS–
ONE MORE REP TO BE INDICTED FOR I/R ???
Richard: How on Earth does the Colorado Supreme Court claim the ability to block Trump’s ability to be a candidate for President in Colorado on the primary ballot when IF he is nominated by the Republican Party Convention to again
be a candidate for President when in November, 2024 all voters will, in actuality, be voting for Electors where even in a few states the Electors names are still being listed on the ballot. So, if anybody should be investigated for criminal activity regarding this situation shouldn’t the Trump Electors be investigated to determine if THEY had participated in & also be convicted of participating in a rebellion against the Federal Government of these United States?
DIRECT = INDIRECT — IN CONLAW ???
Scott Perry will be indicted for interracial miscegenation?
Our rights are being violated! This needs to be addressed immediately!!
It will be addressed, but not immediately.
I think it is necassary for the individual citisen to sue those judicial, state and city governments that are attacking a candidate that is the front runner of an election to be.I/E NOVEMBER 2024. ELECTION INTERFERENCE.
It proved not to be. Lawfare was a big bust. Winning!
