Brad, Congratulations! You had your day in court, and you got a ruling -- something with which you can deal now. I would be happy to help you, but I am not in a position to work either pro bono, or on contingency. For some ideas, see "State Citizens Cannot Vote" in the Supreme Law Library at URL: http://www.supremelaw.com You could even attach this essay as an exhibit to a petition for rehearing, under the rule of newly found evidence. Have you applied for rehearing, reconsideration, and/or clarification first? This may be necessary to exhaust your judicial remedies at the Circuit Court level. Your case is a very important one, in my opinion, because voting is a fundamental Right, pursuant to at least one California case I have found. As such, the Right is un-lien-able (i.e. no government agent can use a "law" to lien on that Right). Also, take a close look at the Guarantee Clause. The denial of voting to a state Citizen clearly violates the Guarantee Clause, because the elections are being controlled by a political association which is domiciled in the District of Columbia, with allegiance to the federal government, not to the state government. The set of federal citizens who inhabit the several states at the present time, constitutes a legislative democracy, not a constitutional Republic. As such, the Guarantee Clause is violated, because it guarantees to the several states a Republican form of government. Your petitions always have more clout, to the extent that you raise constitutional objections to the state's treatment of you. /s/ Paul Mitchell http://www.supremelaw.com copy: Supreme Law School At 12:21 AM 5/10/97 -0400, you wrote: >My Appeal of Denial of Virginia Voter Registration was denied.
