So, I'm not sure I follow here. What exactly is preventing the court from allowing the special elections?
-
.
@chutry@GrahamDavidA A district ct ordered the special elections, state officials asked SCOTUS to put that order on hold, SCOTUS agreed. -
.
@chutry@GrahamDavidA The stay will remain in effect until SCOTUS decides what it will do with the case. -
.
@chrisgeidner@GrahamDavidA OK, my last tweet crossed paths with yours. Figured that would eventually be the case.
