Rules Prohibited Interim County Organization of Erie County Independence Party from Authorizing the Designation of Candidates

The Fourth Department determined the applicable rules stripped the power to authorize the designation of candidates from the Interim County Organization (ICO) of the Erie County Independence Party:

Election Law § 6-120 permits a county committee to exercise the powers of nomination and designation “unless the rules of the party provide for another committee” (§ 6-120 [3]…).  Here, inasmuch as the Executive Committee is vested “with the authority to issue authorizations in Erie County,” we agree …that the ICO is “thereby stripp[ed] .. . of that authority”… .  Matter of NYS Committee of the Indepence Party v Mohr, 822, 4th Dept 8-15-13
