So, where are all the lawsuits?

[eridani]

Though we've had some successes at the state level, we have accomplished fuckall on the national level. 550 and other bills will never make it out of committee.

Land Shark is suing Snohomish County in WA on the grounds that proprietary software amounts to a theft of the public's votes. We need hundreds more like it in order to stop 2006 election theft. Where is everybody?

1. Good idea and point...

But HR 550 and other bills are getting decided on and making it to vote. That will have to be brought about in all remaining states to become mandated.

2. NJ suit is headed to the appealate

the Essex COunty task force on E-Voting (NJ) is in contact with the Gov. about the Attorney Generals failures in leading NJ forward in implementing HAVA.

In NJ The AG Office runs elections.

In NJ the AG may have screwed up so bad, the DOJ may audit past purchases of the Sequoia Advantage DRE, with HAVA money, the Advantage may not be eligible for title III funds under section 301.

Currently open records requests are in for Everything Sequoia in NJ, And anything on the Certification proceess of voting equipment in NJ.

WE actually dont need to sue---though Current fed & NJ law gives us the avenue of going directly to federal court. Taking the entire process out of the purview of the state level courts--

If our efforts go this far, the NJ AG may be forced to recuse himself.

The AG staff has made threatening statement in the press.
But on our side we have:
--retired NJ Deputy Att. Gen.
--2 Rutgers Univ. Law professors
--entire staff of NJ Appleseed, lawyers staff etc.
--Computer sci PHD Rebeca Mercuri
-- another 8 Phds, math, software, engineering

And weve got the largest paper in NJ giving us some favorable press.

Just a little up date from the trenches, 1 suit in place in NJ, possibility of a 2nd.

3. Yes, time for a mass frivolous lawsuit fest!

How about it?

[eridani]

4. A mass serious lawsuit attack

Nothing is less frivolous than our right to vote without intermediaries.

[Land Shark]

5. Anything that comes between a voter and the final form of their

vote is a recipe for inaccuracy, corruption, and doubtful results.

might as well whisper your vote to the wall, or in the confessional, or ...
