The Ohio Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed challenges brought by voters seeking to overturn President George W. Bush's victory in the state and the re-election of Chief Justice Thomas Moyer.
The 37 voters asked to drop both cases Tuesday. The high court granted the resquests without comment.
Attorney Cliff Arnebeck represented the voters who wanted the court to examine several Election Day problems such as long lines, shortages of voting machines in predominantly minority neighborhoods and problems with computer equipment.
The 2004 US Presidential election turned on the state of Ohio's 20 electoral college votes, and not until preliminary results were finally made available the morning after the vote did Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry concede.
Arnbeck said Tuesday that he could not expect to win given the US Congressional certification of the votes last week and the upcoming inaguration next week.
In declining last month a motion to remove himself from the case, Ohio State Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas Moyer, a Republican called the voters evidence in the case 'woefully inadequate.'

Dear friends at DU:
The Earth still turns, the sun still shines, democracy will still happen in Iraq, and George Bush is still the President.
You may now rejoin America.
And they are going to lose again, and again, and again.
The definition of insanity to keep repeating the same thing expecting different results- Albert Einstein.
This was his prime argument. This guy deserves the dumbest lawyer of the year award.
Why would anyone ask that an illegal candidate even be considered?
Hanoi Kerry is NOT a legitimate US Senator.
Never has been!
The traitor is doing the same thing he has always done.
Aiding the enemy!

That, and they don't have a case to stand on.
It's hardly unexpected for the plantiffs to ask for the case to be dismissed. Had it gone to trial, it would have been laughed out of the courtroom. Now they can claim that they couldn't win because it was too late, instead of having their case being proven without merit in a court of law.
So, will CBS now call Ohio for Bush?
(I'm sure I'm not the first to post this here)
I think the DUmmies really really belieeeeeved Kerry was going to be inaugurated on Jan. 20.
You may now rejoin America Or run for the border.
You're white aren't you mainepatsfan? I know I am, and I have never waited in long lines to vote. You don't care that blacks had to wait in long lines, you don't care that we have a horrible voting sytem in this country, YOU don't care about the democratic process. All you want is your cheap gas and communist chinese clothes from walmart. Well, I say you're weak and you can come down to Northern California anytime and taste the vino baby. You see we have the most beautiful women in the world here and we're happy. We als are much happier not living a pathalogical lie. By the way Bush is not a conservative, he is a progressive who has expanded the government to a super size that will make this empire fall. It is your empire not mine. Democracy is over when you cheat and sin. You kill 100,000 people to get cheap gas? YOU WILL BURN IN HELL!
Arnbeck will have to find new pastures to milk in...
du funnies ought to be good tomorrow.
You are definitely a dummy!
Hey, Dude. I have heard you liberals repeat over and over again America is a democracy. Listen up! AMERICA IS A REPUBLIC!!!! AMERICA IS NOT A DEMOCRACY!! Conservatives have been very slack about not pushing that. And don't you use gas? Or do you ride a camel?? Oh I know one of those sissy bicycles. Jerk!!
Sermon preserved for the ages.
Well not 100,000. 50,000 is my limit.
And those flower children or bloomin' idiots or whatever they are say we preach to them! Ha! They are such sore losers. I have never seen people who are so immature and whiny! Sheesh!
I feel something WONDERFUL has happened...you'd better...get on with your exercises.
Boo Frickin' Hoo....
I'm white and had to wait on a long line. So why should anyone care if black (or green or orange) people had to wait in line? You wanna vote, you wait your turn.
YOU WILL BURN IN HELL!
We're all shaking in fear here sweetums.
