Constitution Party Files Lawsuit seeking to reinstate it’s candidates to the ballot\

On July 20th The Constitution Party of North Carolina, and 3 of it’s Candidates, Jerry Jones, Greg Holt, and Alen Poindexter filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn the ruling by Josh Lawson to remove it’s candidates from the ballot after the Law Changed.

Vice Chairman Kevin Hayes said “ We are asking the courts to place 3 of our candidates back on the ballot. The Constitution Party followed the Law, and our candidates legally filled. Because the Republican led general assembly was afraid of the Constitution Party they opted to target us with a law that would keep New Parties from nominating people who lost a primary. ”

Al Pisano State Chairman said “ Clearly this bill was a direct result of The Constitution Party making the ballot. There was no mention of this until after we made the ballot. Removing someone from the ballot after the law changes sets bad precedent and is dirty politics. Even the Democrats never pulled a stunt like this and we believe the citizens of our state will end up rejecting this type of politics. “
