Your honors —

If I may, as the original election commissioner involved in this case, I'll demur the legalese of the appellant and amicus brief above. 

Yet, while I agree with with the appellant that this was not the the least disruptive method, I believe this could have been substantially mitigated by the original ruling providing a more explicit direction for how the election commissioner could satisfy the court's ruling.

While I appreciate the court's conservatism in its ruling, more explicit instruction would have been useful; I would encourage the court to offer practical implications in future cases, especially of such magnitude.

Thank you.
