You have to remember that all these counties that they plan to file suit against are democratic counties, the election committee's are all run by democrats, the ballots were designed by democrats, and the democrats did the re-count. So who will be shown to be corrupt?

All EXCELLENT points!

Boyd refused to name the cities or counties that will be sued, but he said the lawsuits would be filed within the next two months. "It will be well in advance of the primaries for the November 2002 elections," he said.

They haven't announced which counties will be sued. I suspect that it MAY be Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade. But we'll have to wait and see. When I heard about this suit my initial reaction was "WTF!".

I'm with you. My basic take is that the Feds have done some digging and know there were shenanigans. Could it be that GW is sucking the Dims into praising this lawsuit because it outwardly looks to side with them, but when the suit is filed, it also charges military disenfranchisment, extended polling hours in (Dim) precincts, thuggery,intimidation..etc. The Dims will then look hypocritical for initially praising it but later railing against it. I like it. This is also Bush's circumvention of a partisan Congress. He get's a high profile revelation of what really happpened in 2000, and the defendants are Democrat election board members. Ultimately it will incense Americans when they find out the sheer corruption revealed.

The reason the Civil Rights Division is filing this is because voting is a civil right. It doesn't always mean "Black folks were treated bad by white Republicans."
