Total Recall: California recall to go forward
The California recall election will go on as scheduled, a full panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled unanimously Tuesday in a decision that brings the Oct. 7 election closer to reality. The court concluded that halting the recall election that has already begun, would do more harm than good. In a statement issued by the court, the judges wrote that the district judge who ruled to allow the election on whether to oust Democratic Gov. Gray Davis had correctly adjudicated the case. "The district court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that plaintiffs will suffer no hardship that outweighs the stake of the state of California and its citizens in having this election go forward as planned and as required by the California Constitution," the opinion read.Posted by: Mike 2003-09-23 |
