Is El-Sayed even going to be on the ballot bc of the registration issue? He's young, maybe he should try for a smaller seat then try again when they work out the registration issues
Nobody's going to challenge him. That would cause an intra-party civil war, because he's already likened the valid challenge to the birther movement. If he won the nomination, Republicans would pounce and have him stricken from the ballot and god knows what would happen after that.
The MDP needs to do something to muzzle Thanedar. He said in an interview in the beginning that he's only running as a perennial candidate to be a pain in the ass to the hated establishment.
That’s my fear , he somehow gets stricken from the ballot because of the registration issues if he were to win the primary. There’s no reason to run that risk. Especially in a state that’s both very winnable and very important in the redistricting fight. He should probably just take one for the team and drop out while they figure out the legal stuff and try again next time there’s an open seat. He’s definitely got potential, the timing just isn’t right
