Time to start harassing the antis in office/wishing to be in office?

Learn how to object to their nominating petitions ... almost every state allows an admin proceeding to do this, it will cost you nothing but it will cost the candidate as most will hire lawyers. That's 20K less than they can spend on their campaign.

Have fun, I have always found this process to be fun....

Have 4 or 5 people file objection to their petitions and that could be 4 or 5 hearings ... potentially 100K out of their pockets

We've been doing it quite successfully in North East Pennsylvania for a few years now. Another thing to look at is their Statement of Financial Interests (SoFI). We actually had a sitting County Commissioner thrown off the ballot for lying on his SoFI. We also had a sitting state representative thrown off the ballot for lying about his address. He didn't want anyone to know he was living with his girlfriend, who happened to be about forty years younger, lol.

Most states have a baffling amount of paperwork required, much of it associated with finances ..that rep. was a real winner

good riddance to them all, right hahahahahaha
