Biden Ineligible For Illinois Ballot?

My hopes are quite high that the dems boot joe biden off the ticket in the coming months and present a candidate not suffering from sundowners

You'd be so happy if you had any medical evidence of the lies you spew, but sorry loser.
 
LOL. You realize that worst case Illinois legislators can change the law?

Then it would apply to all elections I presume. What if there had been other candidates that failed this same requirement and weren't placed on the ballot? Couldn't they have a case they were disenfranchised?
 


Biden's dismissal attempt was denied and oral arguments have been set. Biden losing Illinois by default would be absolutely hilarious and also a perfect cap stone to one of the worst administrations of all time.
 
Any candidate not following state law should be removed from the ballot. Hopefully, this objection to inclusion will be upheld and applied appropriately.
 
Biden followed the law as been interpreted by the courts for 30 years.

Neither leading candidate followed the state law as written per reports. If either is determined to have violated state law they both should be excluded from the ballot

Biden absolutely followed the law as written.

Section 2 of the Uniform Recognition of Acknowledgments Act
specifically provides that "[n]otarial acts may be performed
outside this State for use in this State with the same effect as
if performed by a notary public of this State by *** a notary
public authorized to perform notarial acts in the place in which
the act is performed." 765 ILCS 30/2 (West 1994). In addition,
section 6 of the Oaths and Affirmations Act states as follows:
"When any oath authorized or required by law to be made
is made out of the state, it may be administered by any
officer authorized by the laws of the state in which it
is so administered, and if such officer have a seal,
his certificate under his official seal shall be
received as prima facie evidence without further proof
of his authority to administer oaths." 5 ILCS 255/6
(West 1994).
The term "State" is defined to include the District of Columbia.
5 ILCS 70/1.14 (West 1994).

Is that Illinois state election law?

Yes. Illinois Election law does not require the Notary to be from Illinois, (10 ILCS 5/7-10.1) (from Ch. 46, par. 7-10.1)
Sec. 7-10.1. subscribed and sworn to by such candidate or nominee before some officer authorized to take acknowledgment of deeds in this State.

Jack Lombardi had filed numerous ballot challenges against biden that have been thrown out.

Thank you for the explanation, unfortunately, that means neither leading candidate can be excluded per the OP.

Except this one was not thrown out and bidens dismissal attempt was officially rejected.

Totally incorrect but if you don’t understand civil procedure I can understand why you would think that. 1/12 was the deadline for all Illinois ballot challenges. All challenges are heard on 1/30 by the Illinois state board of elections. There’s no process to dismiss the challenge before then.
 
Just to further clarify for you, the Illinois state board of elections has a pdf on their website that is available for anyone running for office that lists all the requirements.


Page 24 clearly states:

3. Must the notary reside in Illinois, and may the notary also be a signatory
of the petition?

Under the provisions of the Uniform Recognition of Acknowledgements Act (765 ILCS 30/1 et seq.), notarial acts may be performed outside of Illinois for
use in Illinois.


It has not been definitively determined whether a notary may also be a signatory to a petition. Some electoral boards and circuit courts have upheld petitions where the notary was also a signer of the petition, but the issue has not yet been decided by the Supreme Court or any appellate court in Illinois. A cautious candidate might wish to avoid using a petition signer as the notary so
as to avoid the risk of having to defend against an objection on this issue.
