(1,957 posts)33. You just went from a qualification to be on the ballot
To a law preventing anyone with a specific party affiliation from being on the ballot. That's not even close to a similar argument. Paying a fee or releasing your financials is a qualification. Saying someone can't be on the ballot if they choose a certain political party is not.

He does NOT want those tax returns seen. Tax evasion and money laundering is my guess.

Is having your name printed on a ballot a "qualification" under the Constitution?

I am sure you will be thrilled if they block California from enacting this law.

Well, the whole candidates releasing tax returns thing resulted from past corrupt Presidents.
