Harvard Law Record Carries Account of Corruption in Pennsylvania Process that Kept Ralph Nader Off the Ballot and then Punished Him with Costs

The Harvard Law Record has this detailed account of how corrupt officials in Pennsylvania were assisted by the prominent law firm Reed Smith, in the matter of Nader’s ejection from the Pennsylvania ballot in November 2004. Not only was Nader removed from the ballot, his bank account was seized for over $70,000 in court costs. Later evidence came out that the challengers themselves were illegally using state employees on state time, and state computers, but no Pennsylvania court would do anything about it.

    Looking toward the future:
    What is the status of 2,000 signatures for statewide candidate, including president?
    That would have helped Nader.
    In VA, 5,000 sigs would have helped Rick and Newt.

  3. I always said that Ralph Nader should only have been on the easiest 25 states, with less chance of lawsuits!
