Ninth Circuit Hawaii and Montana Open Primary Lawsuits on May 4

Thanks to Richard Winger of Ballot Access News for this post.

The Ninth Circuit will hold oral arguments on May 4, in Portland, Oregon, in the Hawaii Democratic Party and the the Montana Republican Party, lawsuits against Open Primaries.

The laws were upheld in each of these cases in the lower courts, on the grounds that the two parties didn’t present enough evidence to show that the Open Primaries of those states injures the parties.

Each hearing will last twenty minutes, and they will be in front of the same three judges.

Ravalli County Republican Central Committee v McCulloch 15-35044 and Democratic Party of Hawaii v Nago 13-17545.
