Even before President Joe Biden’s long-speculated withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, allies of former President Donald Trump floated the possibility of suing to block Democrats from having anyone other than Biden on the ballot in November.
But election administration and legal experts said the timing of Biden’s exit on Sunday makes it unlikely that any Republican ballot access challenges will succeed, with some calling the idea “ridiculous” and “frivolous.” Democrats are on safe legal ground as they identify a new standard-bearer, they say, because the party hasn’t officially chosen its nominee. That typically occurs with a vote of delegates at the party’s convention.
“It’s ridiculous for people to talk about ‘replacing Biden.’ He hasn’t been nominated yet,” said Richard Winger, a leading expert on state ballot access laws and the longtime editor of the “Ballot Access News” newsletter.
Strike and boycott, 20 hours per week, unpaid. The data analytics would pay $250-300/hr as a sub (because that’s what I bill and regularly earn). I also spend a significant amount of time as an educator. My family makes sacrifices, lives a lower standard of living, for the cause of anonymous others that have far less.
How about yourself? How big is your dick, lumpen?
Pretty big but I’m not sure that’s relevant. What is though is I work 50+hrs per week to keep shelter over my families head and food in their stomach. Probably a bit too busy to pretend I’m a revolutionary.
Luckily there’s a bunch of you out there striking and boycotting every week so I’m not too concerned!
