DU Lawyers, please explain how TX and GA laws allowing gov to remove ELECTED officials [View all] Eliot Rosewater Aug 2023 OP

Right, which CANT be constitutional and WILL be and is being abused. So I hope it can be Eliot Rosewater Aug 2023 #6
Well, the Constitution ITAL Aug 2023 #10
You are correct Effete Snob Aug 2023 #15
Why do you keep saying it isn't Constitutional? Effete Snob Aug 2023 #14
Why is it unconstitutional? Effete Snob Aug 2023 #11
Why are you focusing on TX and GA? former9thward Aug 2023 #19
Remember Kim Davis in Kentucky? Effete Snob Aug 2023 #20
