ORIGINAL: MrRodgers But as the Mass. Atty said, does this come up to a violation of law ? NO !! Besides as I've written, we are talking 'election' laws while nobody was...being elected to anything. A primary is a private party affair and as a selection of a candidate not an election for anybody to any elective office. It would be thrown out of court. Are you kidding me.. you are seriously making that argument? Primaries are not private affairs. They are run at government polling places, using government election officers, government workers, etc. Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 54, ยง 103A applies Massachusetts election laws to primaries: Sections eighty-six to one hundred and three Q, inclusive, of this chapter, sections twenty-one and twenty-seven of chapter fifty-six and sections thirty-four A and thirty-seven A of chapter fifty-three shall, so far as applicable, apply to special and regular city primaries, preliminary elections, elections and to town primaries, preliminary elections and elections whether special or regular and to special and regular regional vocational school district elections including elections called to authorize bond issues for said districts. The fact that the Massachusetts attorney says no law was broken is a damning indictment that the democrat party controls him, rather than laws and regulations. The law states:53.03(18)(d) Within 150 feet of a polling place as defined by 950 CMR 53.03(18)(c), no person shall solicit votes for or against, or otherwise promote or oppose, any person, party or political position on a ballot question to be voted on at the current election. So its clear: Massachusetss law applies (chpt 54) and Bill broke the law. Chprtrr 53.03.
