	Supreme Court of Ohio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Supreme Court of Ohio is the highest court in the U.S. state of Ohio, with final authority over interpretations of Ohio law and the Ohio Constitution.
		All the seats on the court are elected at large by the voters of Ohio.
		Each time the court overturned such a law, it was met with howls of protest and derision from the legislature, with calls for impeachment and threats to the salaries of the justices.

	.: Print Version :.
		Ohio law only allows one race to be challenged in a single complaint, he said.
		Ohio and its 20 electoral votes determined the outcome of the election, tipping the race to President Bush.
		"Were this court to sanction consolidation here it would establish a precedent whereby twenty-five voters could challenge, in a single case, the election results of every statewide race and issue on the ballot in any given election," Moyer wrote.

	Ohio Supreme Court Decision: June 1, 1999, Special Election, Avon, Ohio (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The June 1, 1999 special election was conducted and the sealed result was transmitted to the court on June 3.
		If the framers of the Avon Charter had intended to completely divest boards of elections, which are the local authorities best equipped to gauge compliance with election laws, of their authority to determine the sufficiency and validity of municipal initiative and referendum petitions, they would have done so with unambiguous language.
		In the absence of express language in a charter demonstrating a conflict with a statute, it is the duty of courts to harmonize the provisions of the charter and statutes relating to the same matter.

	Ohio Presidential Results to be Challenged
		Ohio’s 2004 presidential vote will be challenged as soon as next week in the state Supreme Court, a coalition of public-interest lawyers announced Friday.

		Chief Justice Thomas Moyer ruled against Ohio Attorney General Jim Petro's attempt to have the lawyers sanctioned for filing "a meritless claim" against the vote that gave President Bush a win in Ohio and, as a result, enough electoral votes to win a second term in the White House.
		Moyer, acting under the court's power to assign election-related complaints to a single justice, said that while the court has the authority to sanction attorneys, the speed with which elections must be challenged allows the court some leeway.
		The lawyers' election challenge was withdrawn in early January, with those contesting the results saying it was clear their argument would be dismissed as moot with Bush set to be inaugurated.

	Bush Campaign Urges Dismissal of Election Lawsuit
		The campaign's motion contends that the election challenge missed the filing deadline; improperly named the president, vice president and Bush campaign guru Karl Rove when it should have been filed against Electoral College members, who formally elect the president; and did not present the "clear and convincing evidence" required by Ohio law.
		Jackson said in a news conference preceding the rally that the recount was not conducted properly and that anomalies in election results all over the state continue to mount.
		Coalition participants are picking results apart down to the precinct level in some counties, and they are going door-to-door in disputed areas canvassing voters on how they voted.

		Ohio is also the only state for which pollsters publicly released sufficient precinct-level exit poll and vote count data to perform a valid mathematical analysis.
		The jarring strangeness of the results and the ubiquity of complaints from voters (e.g., those who voted for Kerry and then saw to their shock the machine record their votes as being for Bush), require some kind of explanation, or the legitimacy of elections and of the presidency would be imperiled.
		According to a report to be released today by a group of university statisticians, the odds of a discrepancy this large between the national exit poll and election results happening by accident are close to 1 in a million.

		Concerning the decisive contest in Ohio, the evidence is lucidly compiled in a single congressional report, which, for the last half-year, has been available to anyone inclined to read it.
		The report was the result of a five-week investigation by the committee's Democrats, who reviewed thousands of complaints of fraud, malfeasance, or incompetence surrounding the election in Ohio, and further thousands of complaints that poured in by phone and email as word of the inquiry spread.
		The mission's two-man teams had been approved to monitor the process in eleven states—but the observers in Ohio were prevented from watching the opening of the polling places, the counting of the ballots, and, in some cases, the election itself.
