Judge blocks effort to keep Cawthorn off NC ballots
Judge blocks effort to keep Cawthorn off NC ballots
A federal judge has blocked an effort to keep Republican U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn off North Carolina ballots this year.www.wral.com
Wilmington, N.C. — A federal judge Friday blocked an effort to keep U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn off North Carolina ballot this year, saying the state's election board can’t proceed with an inquiry that would have delved his role leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Chief District Court Judge Richard Myers said he couldn’t allow the challenge, filed by attorneys looking to label the first-term Republican as an insurrectionist who should be legally barred from the ballot, to move forward. The courts, Myers said, must protect the soapbox, the ballot box and the jury box.
i believe what Judge Myers said next is significant
if the court cannot do those things noted above, then the citizens reach into the ammunition box
