[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am mainly a Dem voter and if she didn’t cross her Is and cross her Ts, which resulted in invalid signatures based on the rules then so be it.

I don’t know why she didn’t insist on submitting more than the required amount to at least provide a buffer just in case. [/quote]

My understanding is that when the #OpenFCPS group submitted recall petitions of multiple school board members several years ago, they submitted substantially more signatures than were required under the relevant law precisely in order to provide a buffer and avoid getting the petitions tossed for not having enough valid signatures.

The matters got thrown out on other grounds (namely, the assigned Democratic prosecutors refused to take up the petitions, which led the judges involved to determine that they had no alternative but to dismiss the petitions), and no Democrat complained about an abuse of process then.

Bottom line is that each party always wants the courts to do their bidding, cries fowl when they don't get what they want, and thinks the courts are great if they get what they want. [/quote]
