Dem Conyers Above election law, - back on the ballot

Figures a democrat wouldn't let something like the law get in the way of trying to get on the ballot. Apparently Conyers used unregistered signature collectors.

Figures that just like the democrats being for undocumented voters, they'd be for undocumented signature collectors, and they'd have the ACLU in their corner.

---------------------

Update

Apparently laws don't mater when it comes to democrats. Conyers is back on the ballot because being a registered election worker is now too high of a burden for democrats.

no wonder the left is against voter id, they cant even figure out how to register and collect votes for a nomination.

You really are an irredeemably dopey troll. You actually have a legitimate topic (albeit on a rather obscure topic), but you manage to tube your own thread with silly partisan trolling. You also don't seem to know the difference between people who are undocumented and people who are not registered to vote, not an insignificant difference given the topic.

I guess my point is, work on your quality control . . .

Haters just hate- they don't believe in QC.

LOL omg.

though that says a lot about the state of politics.

Silly man, rules are for the 'other side', our side's actions are justified by the goals we pursue

Isn't that how both "teams" in politics seem to think?

 

[brycejones]

Hint for the OP

Unregistered does not equal undocumented.

The ends justify the means - both parties' motto.

 

[Jhhnn]

The aspersions from the usual malcontents are revelatory as to character, that's for sure.

Clearly, the formality of the petition was assigned to staffers who got it wrong, didn't understand the rules in their entirety. Rather sad, really. The accusation that the intent was not to follow the law is scurrilous, and entirely expected from birther benghazi believers.

I don't agree with John Conyers on much of anything, but he has a solid point in that sound bite.

Figures a democrat wouldn't let something like the law get in the way of trying to get on the ballot.

And how is going through the courts, "not letting the law get in the way"?
How is preparing for a write-in candidacy, "not letting the law get in the way?"
How is questioning the Constitutionality -- the accordance with the highest Law in the land -- "not letting the law get in the way?"

This is what "not letting the law get in the way of your uneducated, personal beliefs" looks like:

No argument in that regard but I would say that it's important to remember that he's part of the problem, not the solution. In prison, everybody is innocent. In politics, nobody is responsible.

What problem is that? Eeebil Libruhls, or what?

In fairness you're talking to a man whose parents (apparently) couldn't spell "Michael."

Seriously?

That's one of several accepted spellings of Michael.

Just let me enjoy my snark. The OP deserves it. If you don't agree, read the other threads he has started.

Looks like he bought himself a judge. I used to work with guys like him. It was a contest to see who could get the most years of service put on their headstones. Dying on the job with over 50 years got you the silver headstone from the company. 60 years for the gold and 70 years for the platinum model.

Maybe in this next term he'll find time to "read the bill".

Maybe someday you'll find time to read up on federal law. This ruling isn't surprising in the least, as it follows it. But this is over your head, as most things are.

typically lefty doesn't believe in any election law. Let the illegals vote.

Typical michal1980 post, not even on topic in his own thread.

Relevant SCOTUS precedent says this is the right decision.

Constitutionally upheld Federal election law trumps state election law. Or can Michigan election officials usurp the power of the SCOTUS?

In the simplest terms- Want some cheese with that Libertopian whine?
