If there was ever any doubt about who controls the mainstream press in this country let there be none now.
The only state in the US where voting irregularities are front page news and it is where a Republican "loser" is challenging a Democrat. This proves that the Republicans OWN the media in this country and that they have locked down news about much more glaring issues in Ohio and other states simply and solely because it was a challenge to one of their own.
The pathologically hypocritical Slade Gordon, often considered a moderate, shows the degenerative effects of being in the midst of such a vile group of fascist slime. Neo-con Republicanism is a disease.
Gop to file lawsuit:
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002144016_gopsuit06m.htmlOLYMPIA — The Republican court challenge to Christine Gregoire's election as governor, expected to be filed today, will center on mishandled provisional ballots in King County and lingering questions about why the county shows more votes counted than people voting on Nov. 2.
That's Republican candidate Dino Rossi's best bet for getting a judge to overturn Gregoire's 129-vote victory, said former U.S. Sen. Slade Gorton. Gorton, an attorney who lost his Senate seat in a close 2000 race, is not part of Rossi's legal team but is a close adviser to the candidate and has been consulted about the imminent legal challenge.
"That will be the primary ground of any election contest," Gorton said yesterday. "And I've got to say I think it's not only a valid argument, but a compelling argument."
The lawsuit also will likely include allegations of votes by dead people and felons, and multiple votes by the same voter. But those issues, while garnering much attention among Rossi supporters in recent days, will be secondary.
"If you're bringing one of these things, I suppose you throw everything in," Gorton said.
