N.J. Courts Rule Democrats Can Replace Torricelli

How can they just rewrite the law?

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=578&e=3&cid=578&u=/nm/20021002/ts_nm/politics_newjersey_dc

As I understand it, there isn't any recourse as this is a state issue and the state's "Supreme" court just "fixed" it for the handsomehunkcrats

never ceased to be amazed by the outright illegal, immoral, liberal handsomehunkes called democrats :rolleyes:

Thrawn-

I realize you're Canadian, but you have to agree there is a pattern emerging here with the Democrats during elections- if you don't agree with the application of the law, take it to the State Supreme Court. It does render laws rather meaningless, doesn't it? And... think of all the wonderful elections we'll now have! Is your candidate 20pts behind in the polls? Replace him!

Heck, think about the next presidential election! "We want Hillary... er, no, we wanted Gore! That's right, Gore!... er, wait, we meant Bradley, that's right, Bradley!... but wait...Daschle is looking less wimpy now..."

aparently it's ok for the courts and a brother on the election board to fix a presidential election.  but if you want the courts work the other way it's a problem :rolleyes:

I'll trade ya straight up. one presidential election (deciding who wins) for one congresional election(deciding who can try to win.

I don't nescasarily agree with this decision but it stinks no more than florida in november.

why do the same people who said "the courts decided live with it." cry the loudest when the courts don't go their way.

the absentee ballots are already printed with the torch and have been distributed

what'll happen there?

Florida 2000 did not rewrite any law in the election process

NJ flat out broke it - amazing

and are the ppl of NJ so desperate they'll go along with the crime and vote for the illegally appointed handsomehunkcrat rep?

Hey Capt., my memory must be better than yours. As I recall, the Dems wanted a recount- and got it. Then they wanted another- and got it. Then the deadline came and went- you know, the deadline set by law? Then the Dems went to the SSC and got an illegal extension.

Refresh my memory, who was trying to fix an election?

Maybe we should all just start mailing our ballots directly to the US Supreme Court.  ;)
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
