Report: "Attorney Inadvertently Admits Deregulation Ballot Language Is Inconsistent, Misleading"
September 03,2019
The Capitolist gives its take on last week's Florida state Supreme Court oral arguments on ballot language for the proposed electric choice initiative, with the Capitolist reporting that a lawyer for electric choice advocates inadvertently admitted that the ballot language is inconsistent and, in The Capitolist summation, "misleading"
The exchange, which was previously reported, included the lawyer for choice advocates conceding in the affirmation to a justice's question concerning the language was "inconsistent." The term "misleading" was not used during such line of questioning
