Caleb Burns Discusses Options for Lawmakers if Roy Moore Doesn’t Withdraw from Senate Race

Caleb P. Burns, partner in Wiley Rein’s Election Law & Government Ethics Practice, appeared several times in a November 13 segment of Fox News’ “Special Report with Bret Baier,” discussing lawmakers’ options if U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore declines to withdraw from Alabama’s special election following new allegations against Mr. Moore. Mr. Burns commented on the extraordinary possibility that the Republican Party could petition to remove Mr. Moore’s name from the Republican ballot, and other options, such as exclusion or expulsion, if Mr. Moore doesn’t step down before the December 12 election.
