Larry Elder Back on California Recall Ballot
RADIO ONLINE | Thursday, July 22, 2021 |
In another dramatic twist, conservative talk show host Larry Elder has been reinstated in California's gubernatorial recall election after a judge found he complied with ballot requirements and that the state elections chief should never have demanded that candidates provide five years of tax returns.
Secretary of State Shirley Weber's office said the documents Elder shared were improperly redacted, but Elder went to court over the issue. Just hours before Weber was set to certify the final list of candidates, Sacramento Superior Court Judge Laurie Earl rejected Weber's conclusion that recall candidates are covered by the 2019 state law compelling gubernatorial candidates in a "direct primary election" to release tax returns.
Putting Elder back on the ballot brings the tentative total of recall candidates to 43. It was not immediately clear whether that ruling will lead to additional candidates being reinstated.
