FYI: As a followup to the filing of a challenge to President-elect Obama’s votes in Washington state, the state Supreme Court has set an “en banc” conference for Jan. 8.
This means all of the justices participate in deciding whether to take the case, not just a department (half the court) or, as more usual, just the court commissioner. The challengers, James Broi and 12 others, are represented by Bellevue attorney Stephen Pidgeon
