COLUMBUS - Lawyers who have been documenting voting day problems in
Ohio say they'll challenge the results of the presidential election as
soon as the vote is official.

The lawyers say documented cases of long lines, a shortage of machines
and a pattern of problems in predominantly black neighborhoods are
enough evidence to bring such a challenge.

"The objective is to get to the truth," said Cliff Arnebeck, a lawyer
who said he'll represent voters who cast ballots Nov. 2. Arnebeck said
the effort is bipartisan.

"What's critically important, whether it's President Bush or Sen.
Kerry, whoever's been actually elected, is to know you won by an
honest election," he said. "So it's in the interest of both sides as
American citizens to know the truth and to have this answered."

4. They better challenge the results!

Every vote must be counted, and counted accurately, unlike those machines in Indiana that tabulated every straight Democratic vote as a Libertarian vote.

7. Would it be possible for a court order that would have the

state do the whole vote all over again? I mean another election
day.

13. We won't lay down for you this time

How very UN American of them to say this is a waste of time.Im sure the disinfranchised black voters,the people who couldn't wait in line long enough to vote and the many other people who have complaints about voting don't appreciate being disregarded like that.

Fight the good fight:kick:

16. Bush doesn't hate lawyers.

Only other people's lawyers. He loves his lawyers. Heck, they got him into the White House and told him he didn't have to adhere to the Geneva Conventions. He loves his lawyers.
