DIONISHA GRAHAM AND DERRICK A. GRAHAM, SR. * NO. 2015-CA-1034 * COURT OF APPEAL * FOURTH CIRCUIT * STATE OF LOUISIANA VERSUS RAYMOND C. CRAWFORD AND TOM SCHEDLER, IN HIS CAPACITY AS LOUISIANA SECRETARY OF STATE * * ******* BONIN, J., CONCURS IN THE RESULT WITH REASONS. I concur because the result is that Reverend Ray Charles Crawford is permitted to stand for election to the House of Representatives. I, however, am of the view that the district court is without subject matter jurisdiction in a qualifications challenge to a candidate for a seat in the legislative branch of state government. See Nixon v. Hughes, 15-1036 (La. App. 4 Cir. 9/29/15), --- So. 3d -- (Bonin, J., dissenting).
