JURIST - Paper Chase: Group of voters to challenge Ohio presidential election results before state supreme court

[JURIST] A group of Democratic voters represented by the liberal group Alliance for Democracy will challenge the results of the presidential election in the state, alleging widespread irregularities, before an Ohio Supreme Court justice Wednesday. About 25 voters are challenging the results, though their lawyer, Cliff Arnebeck, said he expected other voters and groups to join the suit. Arnebeck said exit polls and evidence of irregularities indicated that some valid votes were excluded in the count. The official results do not need to be certified under Ohio law until Monday. A spokesman for Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell said that there was no evidence of voting irregularities in the state. The Alliance for Democracy has more
