From the LVRJ: On the eve of Election Day, a Clark County judge dealt a severe blow
to the campaign of a Democratic candidate for state Assembly.
Judge
Rob Bare ruled Andrew Martin, who is campaigning for Assembly District
9, doesn't meet the residency requirement to run for the seat.
Bare's
ruling was in response to a challenge from Republican candidate Kelly
Hurst, who hired a private detective who shot video of Martin that
appeared to show the Democrat residing in a home he owns outside the
district.
"It is my view that Andrew Martin may not be a candidate
for the office of Assembly District 9," Bare said following about three
hours of testimony. "My finding is that his candidacy is not valid, he
is not eligible to run based upon his failure to meet the residency
requirement." http://www.lvrj.com/news/judge-nixes-assembly-candidate-s-campaign-on-eve-of-election-day-177410141.html
Too bad this ruling and case didn't happen, say around September?
It will be interesting to see what happens if Martin wins.
Sunrise — 6:31, 6:37, 6:46, 6:51.
