So with the Fat Lady warming up by singing September Song for the Holtzman Campaign, it's back to the Supreme Court.
A Denver District Court ordered today that Holtzman's name be removed from the primary ballot in 48 hours unless the Colorado Supreme Court decides to hear his appeal."There is no evidence or basis in law to set aside or overturn the Secretary of State," ruled Judge Robert S. Hyatt, referring to the secretary's decision more than two weeks ago that Holtzman did not have enough valid signatures to make the Aug. 8 primary ballot.
Because the judge found Holtzman had "absolutely no reasonable probability of success on the merits" of his case, he would suffer no "irreparable harm" by not being on the ballot. Therefore, Hyatt ordered his name be removed from the ballot pending a 48-hour stay.
Of course, I'm not sure I'd put it past these jokers could rule that the 1500-voter-per-district violtates one-man-one-vote, or something like that.
