Appeals court reinstates recall vote date in California
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously reversed a earlier ruling and reinstated California’s October 7 gubernatorial recall election. The decision keeps Election Day two weeks away unless the Supreme Court intervenes, with ACLU weighing an appeal. The ruling rests on the state constitution rather than Bush v. Gore precedents.
