Federal judge ready to hold SOS Ken Blackwell in contempt unless
Board of Elections in Ohio stop holding hearings before Tuesday's elections.

Counties have been holding voter challenge hearings in spite of a federal court order barring them. This is being reported on WCPO - Cincinnati Channel 9's website.

I do not know how to do a link so maybe some of you who are not so technically challenged can go there and do a link for me.

It was in the Springfield newspaper today that challenge hearings were held in Clark Co. yesterday too.

Anyway, it would be great if Blackwell is knocked down several pegs by this Federal judge, Susan Diott.

4. COLUMBUS, Ohio
COLUMBUS, Ohio - Republicans lost an attempt Friday to restart hearings on thousands of voter registrations contested by the GOP, and the court's action could mean the hearings will never be held.

The 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati turned down several Republican appeals, clearing the way for a lower-court judge to decide whether to extend her temporary order stopping the hearings.

The court action could prevent the hearings from ever taking place because they must be held within two days of the election, state Republicans have said.

Ohio Attorney General Jim Petro, who filed one of the appeals, said stopping the hearings "has just thrown Ohio's electoral process into disarray, and has opened the door to voter fraud."
