Judge orders United Utah Party candidate on the ballot

“In a ruling handed down Wednesday afternoon, U.S. District Court Judge David Nuffer said excluding United Utah Party candidate Jim Bennett from the special election for Third Congressional District violated the newly formed party’s First and 14th Amendment rights.

“The State’s interests do not require or justify effectively barring UUP and its candidate, Mr. Bennett, from participating in the Special Election as a new political party,” he wrote.”
