Arizona Supreme Court won’t boot three Republicans from the ballot

JTN

The Arizona Supreme Court rejected an attempt to disqualify three Republican politicians from the ballot this year.

The court ruled on Monday that it will not remove Republican Congressmen Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar and state representative Mark Finchem, R-Oro Valley, for their alleged involvement in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill riot.

“The Candidates are not disqualified from appearing on the ballot for the 2022 primary election,” the court’s decision said.

An organization called Free Speech For People filed the three lawsuits. It claimed that the three politicians were “insurrectionists” and therefore should be disqualified from holding public office under a clause in the Fourteenth Amendment.

The Arizona Supreme Court rejected that claim, explaining that’s not how the law works and that the organization had no legal authority to use this to get candidates tossed from the ballot. read more

  1. The name “Free Speech For People” is all you need to know about Communists whose playbook calls for the elimination of the competition because they can’t win in a fair election!

  2. “Free Speech for People” is a dead giveaway, group of corrupt elitists pretending to represent us. Already sounds like a buncha commies.

    Why not just call themselves “Group of Corrupt Elitists Trying to Corrupt Elections”?

  3. Shit, their still countin ballots from the 2020 election, the only problem is everytime they keep finding more ballots for Biden. I think all the dry heat up their brains a long long time ago. They need to search the Grand Canyon, I heard bunch were tossed in.

  4. these three participated in the “insurrection “? Bullshit. Meanwhile, democrats including the White House are actively encouraging the illegal protests at the Supreme Court and the homes of the justices.
