As expected, State Sen. Amanda Chase (R)’s “big announcement” is a lawsuit against her Senate colleagues. We’ll see if the court even agrees that Chase has standing. Also, wouldn’t the State Senate have sovereign immunity? Beyond that, it’s hard to believe any court would agree with the underlying arguments in this lawsuit, but we’ll see I guess. By the way, Chase’s attorney Tim Anderson is a Republican candidate for House of Delegates in HD83, which is currently represented by Del. Nancy Guy (D), who was elected in 2019 by 27 votes over then-incumbent Republican Del. Chris Stolle.
