Administrators bar a high school student from running in a student election after the student criticizes them in a blog for their handling of a student festival. In the blog, the student calls the administrators names and asks fellow students and parents to complain to the superintendent to make him mad. Inappropriate language was used in the post, which was written and sent from home. Q: Does the student blogger have a free speech defense?
