of cost and attrition to postpone crucial discovery.
The completion of this precedent-setting case in a timely manner will provide further detail and insight into what can be achieved through the courts on behalf of election integrity.
Thousands of individual donors give millions to Ron Paul to end the Federal Reserve, remove the U.S. from illegal wars and to restore the constitution, but what good does it do if elections are still suspect?
Tens of thousands of dollars were collected to give the Occupy Movement clothes and shelter for this rough winter season, but what is the point of an Occupy Movement if elections fail to reflect the will of the population?
With your help, this case can be a timely resource for the 2012 elections.
No other efforts come close to achieving this most effective, widespread measure to enable public scrutiny, transparency and accuracy of elections. Election laws and law enforcement (Feds) have failed to protect the integrity of elections.

This lawsuit in Pima County, Arizona has already won the appellate decision for prospective relief in rigged elections. Those working to protect election transparency correctly argued that the courts must intervene when there is a failure of existing laws as well as a failure to enforce existing laws designed to keep elections transparent and accurate.
Despite court victories, election integrity advocates involved with this case are straddled with ongoing legal costs involving the storage of ballots and other court expenses.
To make matters worse, Pima County has taken elaborate, evasive measures that exceed what is legally customary when requests are made for public records, discovery, depositions and other seemingly innocuous items that could provide a clearer picture of election security.
The reason why the county is using such extreme measures to stop this trial is that the plaintiff, the Libertarian Party, may conduct discovery which includes a forensic exam of election ballots to demonstrate to the courts that the 2006 RTA election calling for a two billion dollar twenty-year sales tax hike was rigged by Pima County's Elections Division. This is the prerequisite for the courts to grant prospective relief for rigged elections.
If they felt they would be exonerated, Pima County would welcome the scrutiny. Instead, it appears that Pima County Administrator Chuck Huckelberry is pushing his attorneys to use all conceivable tactics to delay and obstruct what would ultimately benefit the nation as a precedent-setting court case aimed at improving election integrity.
