Conservative talk radio and EpochTV host Larry Elder has filed a lawsuit challenging a decision by California’s Secretary of State to block him from running in the state’s special recall election in September, alleging he’s the target of political “shenanigans” that are “dangerous and unconstitutional.”
Elder, a Republican who on July 12 entered the gubernatorial race to oust incumbent Gov. Gavin Newsom, said in a video posted on Twitter on Tuesday that he has filed a lawsuit against California Secretary of State Shirley Weber for failing to put him on the ballot despite his campaign’s insistence he has filed “every piece of paper required.”
