Are you sure? Some attorney on the Dim side is filing some lawsuit on Monday. But I'm glad not much attention is being paid to this but what little attention that is happening..why aren't our guys (tv pundits) talking about this and killing this in case it gets big?
Gotta love fridays. I think they have come out of their P.E.S.T stupor.
Because they know it's a joke and can't be bothered trifling with such nonsense? Anyhow, correct me if I'm mistaken, but I think once the electors cast their votes, only Congress has the authority in the matter--no judges, no courts, none of that.
First of all, there's nothing to the "case." The whole point of this is to attempt to change election law for the future (making it possible for just about anyone, with or without an address, citizen or not, to vote, and for the Dems to contest any win) and to throw slime on Bush's win.
His argument is that Ohio Supreme Court justice candidate Connaley (a Democrat) got more votes then Kerry in heavily Republican areas, thus there was a fraud. He based this idiotic argument on the fact that there is no way some lower candidate on the ballot can get more votes than the presidential candidate of his or her party. Here is how to debunk his argument in few seconds:
In the whole state of Ohio the Republican US Senator Voinovich got 580,000 votes more than President Bush, where as Kerry got 670,000 votes more than Connally the Ohio Supreme Court justice candidate.
Voinovich won most of the Ohio counties that President Bush lost. Even in the counties that both him and President Bush lost he still got more votes. For example in Cuayahoga county (Cleveland area) Voinovich got approximately 70,000 more votes than President Bush.
So if we have to apply the laughable argument of Arnebeck we should conclude there was much more fraud against President Bush than against John Kerry, and that President Bush should have won Ohio not only by 118,775 votes but by 698,775 votes!
Why??? What interest does the GOP have in protecting the Democrats from looking like a bunch of poor losers that are fanatical.
