Larry Elder announced he was running for governor of California just a few days ago. When he entered the race he immediately became a frontrunner on the Republican side of the ticket.

He was off to a strong start.
On Sunday, his campaign was notified by California’s woke Secretary of State that he is disqualified from running in the upcoming recall election and will not be added to the ballot.
Their reason for the unprecedented removal of Elder from the race?
“Redaction issues” with his tax returns.
The Secretary of State could have made the supposedly required redaction(s), but elected not to. We're trying to ascertain the details.

After days of telling the media that they had already notified all candidates who had not qualified for the ticket, the Secretary of State sent an email at the final hour to Elder’s campaign late Sunday afternoon with the news.
Elder says he filed all paperwork in a timely manner and was never notified to be able to make the necessary revisions.
According to his campaign lawyers, this is the first time in the history of California, and possibly the country, that a candidate has been disqualified for redaction issues with tax returns.
Shortly thereafter, they shared the letter sent to my campaign manager with the media. Our lawyers tell us that no candidate has ever been previously disqualified due to redaction issues with income tax returns.

He also explained that the decision violated his equal protection rights under the California constitution because they did not hold Gavin Newsome, California’s elitist incumbent governor, to the same ridiculous standard.
Elder vowed to see them in court if the decision was not reversed.
If the Secretary of State's decision is not reversed, we will see them in court.

The commies in California are scared he would win.
