Judge: ‘I Have Not Been Convinced’

Hosack said the case has a lot to prove to identify and overturn five votes that were illegally cast for Kennedy. The judge weighed nearly two hours of testimony from both counsels in support and against the hundreds of pages worth of affidavits and reports now filling multiple files in courthouse records regarding the civil suit that’s in its 10th month. While some of those filings don’t amount yet to fact in the court’s view, the case has come too far now to cut it off, the judge ruled. “If it were a trial, I have not been convinced,” Hosack said. “But this isn’t a trial”/ Tom Hasslinger , Coeur d’Alene Press.
