<Not much of a surprise, really. While I do not believe the court to be corrupt, I do think the decision was anticipated before the Democrats even made the final decision to dump Torricelli.
...While Democrats waited for the court to act, they planned Lautenberg's campaign and negotiated the transfer of funds and operations from Torricelli's operation. A kickoff party was scheduled for Wednesday evening.
And despite Republican talk about the U.S. Supreme Court, I really don't think there is a Federal case in this.
So it goes.
Next step: when Forrester wins the election, the Democrats will squeal about how the reprinted ballots confused everyone, and their mouth-breathing constituents were denied the right to have their votes counted. Back to court again.
