There is something potentially subversive about the actions of the employees of the town of Erin, who accepted nomination papers from two candidates after a ‘cursory review’ and then later rejected them as incomplete. Surely if the papers were incomplete, there should be repercussions for those employees who accepted them without noticing errors, not for the potential candidates. Why would the town wait until after nominations were closed to look at them again if they were acceptable initially? Is this a way to weed out candidates that you don’t agree with?
