Election law experts confirm that Speaker Johnson is incorrect

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘“First of all, the Democratic Party is not ‘replacing or switch[ing] out’ its nominee,” Edward B. Foley, the director of the election law program at Ohio State University, told us via email. “Biden was never the official nominee, only the presumptive nominee. The nominee is chosen by the delegates to the convention, either at the convention or in a virtual roll call beforehand, neither of which has occurred yet.

“Moreover, political parties have the constitutional right to determine the procedure by which they select their nominees, as repeatedly confirmed by the Supreme Court,” Foley said, citing the Supreme Court cases Democratic Party of United States v. Wisconsin ex rel. La Follette and California Democratic Party v. Jones.’

Election law experts say House Speaker Mike Johnson is wrong when he says it is "unlawful" for Democrats to "simply just switch out a candidate who has been chosen through the ... democratic process."

Like others on the right, Johnson is consistent at being wrong.

For five years, the Democrat party, the democrat media, and the Democrat leadership has lied to the American people.

They are liars. They cannot be believed. Not for one single thing can they be trusted.

Sounds like you just bought a couple of more pounds of baloney from the Reich sausage factory Mrs. Jones.

But...but...election law "experts".....

Joe dropped out....none of this could happen, without Biden CHOOSING to drop out.....none of this would have happened if it were not for Biden's brain farts in the debate....

 

[Care4all]

Kamala is still a Hail Mary pass, and catching the ball and in to the end zone, has not happened yet.

Democrats should not count their chickens before they hatch imo.

All this did, is breathe life in to them again...which is a good start....at least for the candidates running for Congress and the Senate.... which is critical, if Trump wins the presidency.

Yeah, I thought that Hillary Clinton was going to win for sure. I won't make that mistake again. Real Americans hate non-tradwomen.
