FEDERAL JUDGE RULES THAT OHIO RECOUNT WILL GO FORWARD IN ALL COUNTIES
Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb today expressed his
satisfaction with a ruling by a federal judge taking jurisdiction over
a Delaware County, Ohio lawsuit and denying the county's attempt to
stop the recount of presidential ballots in that county.
"We are very pleased that the judge recognized our right to a recount
and that the recount will go forward in each and every county in
Ohio," said Cobb.
The judge also provisionally granted the motion by the Kerry-Edwards
campaign to intervene in the lawsuit in defense of the position of
Cobb and Libertarian Michael Badnarik. Although the judge did not
agree with Cobb that the recount should proceed on an expedited basis,
the Cobb campaign is confident that a full and complete recount will
take place.
