GROUP CHALLENGING OHIO ELECTION RESULTS
Thursday, December 2, 2004 at 6:53am

(AP) - A lawyer representing at least 25 voters who feel their right to vote was violated plans to file a lawsuit with the Ohio Supreme Court today claiming widespread abuses in the presidential election.

Attorney Cliff Arnebeck of Columbus says the lawsuit will request that the court make a projection of what the vote total should have been where there were abuses.

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson said Sunday the Ohio Supreme Court should consider setting aside President Bush's win in Ohio and that Congress should investigate how Ohioans voted.

Arnebeck said yesterday that Jackson and his Rainbow/PUSH Coalition might become part of the suit.

3. Kerry Campaign Keeping Eye on Ohio Cases
Posted on Thu, Dec. 02, 2004

Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio - John Kerry's campaign has joined a lawsuit by third-party presidential candidates seeking a recount in Ohio. A lawyer for the campaign said Thursday the campaign does not question the Democrat's loss but wants any counting to take place statewide.
Kerry's campaign this week joined the suit filed by Green and Libertarian party candidates seeking a recount of the vote in Delaware County. A judge in that county issued a restraining order blocking that request, but the order expired Thursday. A hearing is set in federal court in Columbus on Friday on the recount request.

"The Kerry-Edwards campaign felt it had to intervene," said Daniel Hoffheimer, a Cincinnati lawyer who represents the campaign in Ohio. "We did not want a recount to go forward if it only was 87 (of Ohio's 88) counties."

...

The Kerry campaign isn't disputing the outcome of President Bush's Nov. 2 victory in Ohio - a 136,000-vote margin, based on unofficial results - but wants to make sure any recount is "done accurately and completely," Hoffheimer said.

...

Meanwhile, a lawyer representing a group alleging fraud in the Ohio presidential election put off until at least Friday the filing of a challenge to the results. Cliff Arnebeck, who alleges that votes intended for Kerry were shifted to Bush, said his legal team needed more time to collect and analyze evidence. He said the filing could take place as late as Monday.

In another development, Rep. John Conyers Jr., D-Mich., sent a letter to Blackwell asking for his assistance in a House Judiciary Committee Democratic staff investigation of "election irregularities." That probe would be in addition to one sought by the Congressional Budget Office.
