VA Candidate Asks Court to Allow Him to Circulate His Own Nominating Petitions
While Citizens in Charge focuses on initiative and referendum petitioning, nomination petition law often has a major effect on other petitions. We have been following the case of Herb Lux, who sought to run as an independent candidate for Congress in the 2010 general election, but wasn’t allowed to circulate his own petitions. On Wednesday Lux asked the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit to protect his petition rights. Many legal observers believe the case will go to the Supreme Court.
