I heard Walton is appealing to the 2nd Court of Appeals. What are they chances they overturn this ruling?

Worth noting that the judge's brother in this case is a top donor for Brown's campaign. Not surprised that the most corrupt state in the union is attempting to steal another election from the left.

No one is trying to steal anything. A judge ordered he placed on the ballot and that's that. Unless the second circuit says otherwise Brown will be on the ballot. Should the Board of Elections in your view defy the court and refuse to place him on the ballot?

What's the statutory basis for the ruling? There shouldn't be room for legal shenanigans here. What does the law say about losing primary candidates appearing on the ballot? If it's allowed, it's allowed. If it's not, it's not.

Brown missed the filing deadline to get on the ballot as an independent. From what I hear their argument was that the filing deadline was too early - and the reasoning is unclear from Brown or Sinatra's side.

Yes. The presiding judge had a very clear conflict of interest in the case, per Code of Conduct. Couple that, the political leaning of the judge, and the ruling that transcends precedence, and it points to corruption - much more explicit than the Caban situation.
No. They would be held in contempt of court. The leaning of the judge us irrelevant. You have no evidence of anything else you allege.

It wasn't. This is an attempt to make a mountain out of molehill. She was not an elected official and therefore was not invited. Official events and campaigns have to be separate.
