Ralph Nader Asks Maine Supreme Court to let his Tort Lawsuit Against Democrats Go to Trial

On September 14, an attorney for Ralph Nader argued before the Maine Supreme Court that Nader’s lawsuit against the Democratic Party (for its behavior toward him in 2004), should be permitted to go to trial. See this story. The story erroneously says Nader got .3% for President in 2004; actually he got .4%.

The Maine Supreme Court only permitted Nader’s attorney to speak for 15 minutes. But it let the Defendants speak for a total of 30 minutes. There are two Defendants, the Ballot Project and the Democratic National Committee, and each had 15 minutes. The Ballot Project was a group of Democrats who organized the nationwide effort to block Nader from the ballot.

  1. This is a fight for the future of citizen rule over corporate rule, for the next independent or third party candidate against exclusion tactics of the two major parties and their corporate allies. Good for Ralph!
