On Dec. 13th, a case was filed in Ohio Supreme Court as "Verified election contest petition in the Supreme Court of Ohio Case No. (R. C. 3515.08)", a.k.a. "Moss v. Bush". (First filing, pdf, 82KB)
The legal suit is headed by Cliff Arnebeck of the Alliance for Democracy, representing a group of thirty-seven voters. According to statements made by Mr. Arnebeck, he will ask the courts to set aside the results and possibly declare John Kerry the winner of Ohio, on the basis of widespread systematic election fraud that altered the outcome of the election. He claims to have sufficient evidence to prove the allegations. Ohio law permits the state Supreme Court to review elections in such cases.
On Dec. 16th, the case was thrown out on a technicality The technicality is that two races were disputed in one challenge. One race was the presidential. The other was the election of the judge himself; Ohio Supreme Court Justice Thomas Moyer. The judge threw out the case against himself and the president, instead of recusing himself. (dismissal, pdf)
On Dec. 17th, the case was refilled. (Second filing, pdf, 1.2MB)
