40. Here is the reply from the vice-chair of the Illinois LP
Ben,

We are seriously looking into it. It may depend on finding a lawyer
knowledgable enough about this that is also willing to do it free, as all
our money and resources at this point are being used to get signatures so
our candidates are on the ballot. We are reaching out to others, such as
Nader, to see if we can work together on this.

But isn't that something. We have to get 25,000 valid signatures (40,000
total) in 90 days to put our Presidential candidate on the ballot, while
their ONLY requirement is to nominate their candidate before the deadline.
They can't even do that without then expecting the laws which they wrote to
be ignored just for them. I wish the media would start taking that angle to
the story. I letter to the editor of your paper about this would be very
helpful also if you are inclined.

Thanks for the suggestion and I hope we can figure something out on this.

Be Free,
Jeff Trigg

My comment;

Any good Democratic lawyers out there willing to help the Illinois LP monkeywrench W on this occasion?
