You are correct, I'm not a lawyer, so my lack of knowledge is understood. But yours?
Losing an election is not slander, the ultimate defense to slander is truthfulness.

I said nothing about an election in regards to slander. My point was about "irreperable harm". The problem with slander of reputation is that the falsehood is placed in the minds of others. Not the slander or slanderee. To ensure trhe reversal of harm you must ensure removal of the false idea from the minds of others. The absence of exculpatory facts does not prove the slander correct but their absence also precludes the correction of the harm.
Therefore one can claim irreperable harm without having being put to death. That's my point.

The facts as they are known is the basis upon which the stay was granted.
