So what's the next move?
Arnebeck filed his lawsuit. So now what?

If the judge doesn't warrant it, is this whole thing over in Ohio?

Also, regarding the investigation, if the Repubs won't look into it now and Dems find evidence, what happens? What can they do with the proof that Ohio was rigged? Assuming that something can be done.

I know about the 1960 decision in Hawaii to change to the 2nd slate of electors, but wasn't both parties working on that instead of today's Dem only investigation?

I just need some hope.

1. It will take a couple days for the Judge to....
accept decide whether they will hear the case or not. I don't know but I think it is the only real challenge out their to the Ohio electors.

2. So we wait around for a week while a judge decides to hear the case?

While we have no updates as to how their interpreting the lawsuit?

I know that this has been ask other places, but eventually, will we be able to read the filed challenge? Before the judge makes his/her decision?

3. I just heard morphed NPR report a comeback from the repubs on
the lawsuit - they are saying that fraud isn't possible because each county representation is 2 repubs and 2 dems, there dems would have to be in on any fraud. Well, we already found out that about 90% of the stuff that went down is not visible to either smart or ignorant representatives whether a repub or dem.

If some people went around telling people to show up Nov2 if voting for Bush and Nov 3 if voting for Kerry. Which among these election officials were savvy computer people even if they had examined the hardware and code. They couldn't even keep the 'mechanics' straight.

We have to come up with a response to the 2 + 2 equals honesty crap.

NPR sucks for their Fox type coverage. The only difference between them is the emotion in the delivery - hyperventilating versus droll.

4. Carlo LoParo's argument is a straw man.
We never said that the fraud was overseen by 2 Dems and 2 Repubs in each county. LoParo skips right over that assertion and implies that "since fraud could only happen this way, and it can't, all the fraud allegations are wrong."

5. God I hate that guy
Being Blackheart's spokesperson/buttpuppet is almost more gross than being Blackheart himself.

6. I heard something about ...
a guy who ran for congress as a democrat (in 2002?) and then switched to republican after he was elected. Am I remembering that right?

8. Talking point: fraud is not visible becuse it occurs in the tabulation
Edited on Mon Dec-13-04 07:03 PM by rosebud57
Even punch cards are tabulated by software provided by ES&S or Triad Governmental Systems. There is nothing to see.
