UPDATE -- 1/27 According to freepress.org home page (link above), as of last evening the Ohio Sanctions Defense Fund has raised $2300 of $28,000 needed to mount a legal defense for the "Fraud-Buster Four" Robert Fitrakis, Susan Truitt, Cliff Arnebeck and Peter Peckarsky. Ohio Attorney General Jim Petro has called for sanctions and possible fines against these patriots for their role in exposing the problems in the Ohio 2004 Election.

Support for the Fraud-buster Four

Initial filings are due tomorrow in the case filed by Ohio's Republican Attorney General to try to sanction and fine the so-called "Fraud-buster Four." These four courageous Election Protection attorneys dared to file lawsuits challenging the "irregularities" in Ohio during Election 2004, so the attempt to sanction them is widely viewed as an attempt to chill the First Amendment rights of the attorneys and, by extension, their supporters. Rep. John Conyers has sent a strong letter expressing concerns to the originator of the GOP counter-attack, Attorney General Jim Petro. Your help is needed. Please donate money to help pay the enormous legal expenses they are incurring to defend themselves.

PLEASE NOTE: The four people under this attack by the Ohio Attorney General have all been leaders in the fight to expose the horrible problems with the 2004 election, and in the opinion of myself and many others, are worthy of support.
