Case Summary

On October 3, 2019, a resident of Miami, Florida, filed this lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The pro se complaint named the Election Voting Board—an entity that did not exist—as the defendant. Proceeding pro se, the plaintiff expressed his belief that primary elections for all states should be on the same day and that the Electoral College should be eliminated. The case was assigned to District Judge Darrin P. Gayles. On October 9, 2019, the district court dismissed the case without prejudice for failure to state a claim. Specifically, the complaint lacked a viable defendant, a statement of jurisdiction, facts alleging an injury, and a demand for relief. The case is now closed.
