GOP SUES DIEBOLD FOR FAILING TO ‘FIX’ MIDTERM ELECTIONS

[Don Davis]

In a lawsuit that legal scholars are calling unprecedented, the Republican National Committee has filed suit against Diebold, the manufacturer of electronic voting machines, for breach of contract, negligence, fraud and breach of fiduciary duty – all arising out of Diebold’s failure to “fix” the midterm elections in favor of the GOP.

The 189-page complaint, filed, naturally, in the Southern District of Florida, alleges that “Diebold reneged on its promises to deliver a majority of votes to Republican candidates in 49 states.”

A footnote to the complaint explained that “no damages are sought regarding the Communistwealth of Taxachussets, which even elected a black guy as governor; as the GOP acknowledges that Diebold could only be expected to perform its contractual promises, not miracles.”

Professor Alan Dershowitz of the Harvard Law School commented that this was the first time he could recall an action being brought against a party for failing to carry out a fraud. “Indeed,” Dershowitz added, “it would be like O.J. suing a private investigator for not finding the real killer … Oops!”

3. one major FLAW in this story ...

GOP usually doesnt engage in litigious remedies, they win by engaging in shady backroom deals.

- Think 2000 choicepoint puging voter registrations in Florida

- Think (now politically deceased) Katherine Harris

- Think Ralph Reed and the southern Baptist convention in 2004

- Think Ken Blackwell in Ohio in 2004

- Think not having enough locations in Ohio in 2004

They recognize who has the authority to alter the odds and how to make that individual(s)
exercise their jurisdiction to GOP's favor.
