Will Sen. Stevens seek to overturn Alaska Senate election?

[L. Coyote]

A case can be made that the US Senate election in Alaska was improperly and criminally influenced by the Bush Justice Dept.
If the criminal case against Sen. Steven's was tainted, how about the impact continuing the case had on election outcome?

Justice For Ted Stevens: Now what about his Senate seat?
Marc Sheppard - http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2009/04/justice_for_ted_stevens_now_wh.html


Throughout the trial, Stevens had accused federal prosecutors of blatant misconduct ... the foulplay of both the DOJ and the FBI has been so stark that Judge Sullivan has continually postponed sentencing. .... Sullivan held four senior DOJ prosecutors in contempt of court for failing to comply with his order to turn over 33 documents to Stevens' defense team. All four were immediately replaced by the DOJ.

Special Agent Chad Joy, an FBI whistleblower, confirmed that prosecutors had routinely concealed evidence that would have helped Stevens' defense team. Joy also submitted a complaint containing allegations of misconduct regarding his co-case agent and federal prosecutors, ..... listing twenty-three categories of “intentional specific law enforcement and/or prosecutorial misconduct.”

....Allegations also include witness relocation, failure to forward evidence to the FBI, improper investigation revelations and much more.

.......... am I the only one wondering what really motivated Holder’s decision to withdraw DOJ’s opposition to the defense motion for a new trial and to dismiss the indictment?

Or, if his prosecution is proven to have been purely politically motivated, whether it’s too late for Ted Stevens to challenge last November’s election result?

4. Stevens term was up, he cannot challenge the election results

based on Holder's decision. Bad publicity and smears are a part of our political landscape.

7. If they want World War 4

8. somehow, I don't think that all these DOJ prosecutors were put in place

by Pelosi and Reid ...

9. There's always been some speculation here

that there was bad blood between Alberto Gonzales and Stevens. Not saying that Uncle Ted is squeaky clean by any means, but I've read here and there that Gonzales's justice department went after him particularly hard. It could be all rumor.
