On May 30, Ralph Nader asked the Maine Supreme Court to reconsider its May 23 opinion, which said he is not entitled to a trial in his lawsuit against the Democratic Party and its allies for their behavior in the 2004 presidential election. Here is the motion for reconsideration, which is eleven pages. When the motion talks about “petitioning”, it does not mean the process of circulating a petition to get on the ballot. In this context, “petitioning” means legal activity.
Even if you don’t read the entire document, be sure to read the last two pages.
The last part of this Motion is very moving indeed, as well as very telling. Justice is way overdue for Ralph Nader and the citizens of this country.
