RE: Kerry/Edwards filing for suit to recount votes in Ohio
Does this mean they are asking for their votes to be recounted?

Or just giving attorney/financial backing to the Greens?

http://72.3.133.32/press/2004/nov/pr2004-11-30b.php

Ohio — Today, attorneys representing the Kerry-Edwards campaign filed papers in Delaware County, Ohio to intervene in legal proceedings in defense of Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael Badnarik and their legal counsel, the National Voting Rights Institute, who are seeking a recount of all votes cast for president in the Ohio 2004 general election.

Intervene? What exactly does that mean?

3. It means a restraining order was put on the Glibs in an effort to
block the recount and the K/E team in interevning (jumping in) to come to the defense of the Glibs.Apparently K/E feel the recount should go forward and are adding their weight to the request.Basically they are defending the Glib effort.

6. I love this part
We welcome the support of the Kerry-Edwards campaign for the recount and we call upon the Bush-Cheney ticket to offer their support for this multi-partisan effort as well," said Blair Bobier, Media Director for the Cobb-LaMarche Green Party presidential campaign.:eyes:

9. To which Bush/Cheney replied:
"We call upon you to strap your skis on for a turn on the slopes of Hell." LOL. The Republicans actually counting the votes. What a ridiculous notion.
