Seems a Florida judge has put the smackdown on the state's attempt to use the hurricane headed towards New Orleans as an excuse to put Nader on the Ballot:
--------
| Circuit Judge P. Kevin Davey on Wednesday ordered that Nader's name be removed from the November ballot, finding that the Reform Party which nominated Nader isn't a legitimate party under state law. Davey also ordered that four counties that have already mailed absentee ballots listing Nader send out amended ballots without his name.
Davey had issued a temporary order last week keeping the consumer advocate off the ballot, but his ruling was suspended on Monday after Florida Secretary of State Glenda Hood filed an appeal. Davey's ruling on Wednesday reinstates his original decision. |
I'll say it again - how any true conservatives can stay behind a candidate and campaign that so clearly flaunts the rule of law is just beyond me. When did winning an election become more important than principle?
