OK..so justice was done.
Did this Libertarian candidate get back on the ballot?
Were his ideas great enough to get elected?
Did the people that ponied up the signatures vote for and support this person?
My guess is no.
Why "guess" when you can read and find out for yourself? can you say justice was served when ballots were being printed without his name, while the Dems took him to court?
Nobody ever said the dude would win, was the best, or that he had lots of great ideas or support.. the point is the un-american, illegal & unconstitutional actions by repub & dem election board members.
That's how the R/DNC operate, after acting in illegal unconstitutional ways to deny people choice and save their puny political hack jobs, they lie about it and bleed people of funds by making sure they have lots of legal fees ... even Ray Charles can see that.
The end result of doing everything possible to exclude 3rd parties?, a congress full of incompetent party slaves who "do nothing" but bicker with each other.
Is asking the R/DNC to obey the law and act within the constitution too much to ask? they created an ILLEGAL standard

US Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit ruled that the Illinois ballot restrictions on independent candidates were unconstitutional. The court ruled, “In combination, the ballot access requirements for independent legislative candidates in Illinois ... operate to unconstitutionally burden the freedom of political association guaranteed by the First and Fourteenth Amendments.”
