WI state law requires that state officers like members of legislature, judges, or even candidates for the leg, be the person/people that nominates electors. The Green Party even had ample time to mount a write-in campaign for a legislative candidate for the primary that was held a couple of weeks ago, and they didn't. Dems filed a complaint the day after the primary because that's the soonest they could do it.
I don't understand how the Green Party demands to be taken seriously but then routinely breaks incredible simple to understand rules.
It's stuff like this that really annoys me about Green Party. Like really, where in WI state law does it says a party doesn't require a state officer to nominate electors? Nowhere, because it says the complete polar opposite of that and the Green Party is either being ignorant or wilfully ignorant. Personally, I don't understand how one can look at this situation and call the Dem's complaint a "dirty trick in the book of sabotage".
Yes yes, the Dems concern troll everything with "very good reasons" and the Judge just so happens to throw it out.
So you're too lazy/stupid to actually learn why the Green Party isn't following the rules and just settling on some bullshit rage bait, got it.
Hey what's Leahy law
Again, why do you keep dodging the fact that the Green Party blatantly failed to meet the very simple to meet rules? Like you're a grown ass adult and this is really how you respond to basic questions? Jesus christ, just pathetic. Stop wasting my time.
The judge threw out the case what are you talking about
