U.S.C. § 1983

DENIAL OF EQUAL PROTECTION

INVALID ENACTMENT OF REGULATIONS AFFECTING

OBSERVATION AND MONITORING OF THE ELECTION

143.

Plaintiffs refer to and incorporate by reference each of the prior

paragraphs of this Complaint as though the same were repeated at length

herein.

144.

The Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution provides

“nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without

due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal

protection of the laws. See also Bush v. Gore, 531 U.S. 98, 104 (2000)(having

once granted the right to vote on equal terms, the State may not, by later

arbitrary and disparate treatment, value one person’s vote over the value of

another’s). Harper v. Virginia Board of Elections, 383 U.S. 663, 665 (1966)

(“Once the franchise is granted to the electorate, lines may not be drawn

which are inconsistent with the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth

Amendment.”).
