End challenge to Bush's win, lawyers urge Ohio high court [View All]

Lawyers for the Bush campaign asked Ohio's high court Monday to throw out a legal challenge to the president's re-election, even as protesters accelerated accusations of widespread mistakes and manipulation.

The Bush-Cheney regional chairwoman, JoAnn Davidson, said two months is long enough for the Republican victors to withstand protesters, whose public claims and multiple legal actions she characterized as frivolous and unsubstantiated.

"I think we've been very quiet, we've been very patient and we've been very tolerant," Davidson said. "We've given the courts an opportunity to review these matters, but there comes a time that we say we need to accept the results and move on."
