Clark loses challenge to primary ballot


Candidate Jill Clark’s challenge to the candidacy of incumbent Supreme Court Justice Lorie Gildea, right, was denied today, just hours after being heard.

A special Supreme Court panel denied Clark’s petition to remove Gildea from the primary ballot or remove the designation “incumbent” from the ballot. The court said, “So as not to impair the orderly election process, this order is issued with opinion to follow."

Good. I think the petition was very poorly reasoned and I will be interested to see the basis for the decision.
