The problem was attributed Circuit Court Judge Robert A. Greenberg, and arguments have been tentatively scheduled for mid-June.
Jonathan Shurberg, supporters of protection mechanisms, has defied the Board of Elections’ decision to let the voters decide in November if the law should be. He questioned the validity of signatures on petitions on the board and the process used To certify their card.
“We believe we have the information at the end of this agreement, if the judge is consistent with our interpretation,” said Shurberg, equality, represents Maryland, a gay, bisexual and transgender Advocacy Group.
Shurberg said Mary Land’s electoral law stipulates that the signing of a petition include all elements of personal names, how they relate to voter registration roles. If a registered voter Montgomery with his middle of the first, for example, said Shurberg signing the petition must also either the first or middle name. Shurberg and his team have thousands of signatures, and the last census, he said, nearly 4200 signatures is not reached this standard.
Opponents, led by citizens of good governance, said they were following standards by the Board of Directors, businesses certified by more than 26000 signatures, more than 1800 the group needs for the ballot.
Kevin Karpinsky, the legal profession as a representative of the county’s Board of Elections, was unavailable for comment earlier in the week.
If the argument is not Shurberg, he noted, there is still another group of petitions, behind another prerequisite for independent verification of what is called a thermostat. Opponents have signed petitions printed from the Internet prefer, he said, there was often that the signature of the signer and not the second signature is necessary thermostat.
The broad guidelines for new protection mechanisms for the transformation of the kind of people unanimously adopted by the County Council and the law were signed in November County executive Isiah Leggett (D). The law prohibits discrimination in housing, employment and public accommodations based on sexual identity. Opponents argue that the law would be the establishment of a transsexual man, for example, changes in the trafficking of women in the locker room stay Health Club. Supporters say the law makes exceptions for such private areas.
