Bush off the Illinois ballot?


Quote:
Current law requires the Illinois Board of Elections to certify the names that will appear on the general election ballot 67 days before the election. This year that deadline is Aug. 27.

But Bush will not be nominated until Sept. 1, when the GOP holds its national convention in New York City. Therefore, his name cannot legally appear on the ballot as a Republican unless the law is changed, Trigg points out.

....

Instead Republicans and Democrats are collaborating to enact a new law that would carve out an exception only for Bush, which is "nothing les than favoritism and a mockery of the principles of democracy," Trigg said. On March 25, the state Senate unanimously approved SB 2123, which would allow only Republicans and Democrats to be nominated after the deadline, while leaving the requirements the same for all other candidates.
