A new lawsuit seeks to have Republican attorney general nominee Daniel Cameron’s name removed from the Nov. 5 election ballot, arguing that he lacks the eight years of experience as a “practicing attorney” required for the office by Kentucky’s constitution.
The Kentucky Bar Association admitted Cameron on Oct. 21, 2011, which means the election will be held eight years after he was licensed to begin practicing law. But Cameron, who is 33, spent the next two years serving as a clerk for U.S. District Judge Gregory Van Tatenhove in Frankfort and London.
