Primary Election Battle Continues in Federal Court
On Thursday the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will hear a challenge to the way the Democratic Party chooses its presidential nominee. Victor DiMaio, a Democratic political consultant, contends that the party violates the Constitution by taking states' racial makeup into account in its rules on presidential primary dates. The party says it can consider factors that advance its political goals as long as there's no "invidious racial discrimination."
