Fl Ballot Challenge Press Conference Preliminary Report, April 21, 2012
Supporting Information:
The first press
conference in the state for the Florida Ballot Challenge was held in Naples,
Florida on Saturday, April 21st 2012.
We showed up the
rented hall at 12:15 for a 1 PM press conference. Despite the fact that
it was a rainy day, people were already lined up as the custodian opened the
doors. People quickly pitched in to set up the room. The hall
quickly filled up and we started on time. Sam Sewell opened the meeting
with the Pledge of Allegiance and introductory comments, including a
humorous story that got belly laughs and applause.
Mike Voeltz gave
us a report on his case to keep Obama off the ballot, which was filed in
February 2012 against Obama and the Secretary of State, and then later amended
by iconic public interest attorney Larry Klayman. Mike was very
professional and made a powerful presentation. A local attorney in
attendance who has been advising Sam was unaware that Mike is not an attorney
and made arrangements to collaborate with Mike after the press conference.
The crowd
enthusiastically received Jerry Collette’s report on his legal case filed
against Obama and Florida Democratic Party officials in Pasco County. They
especially applauded when he pointed out that the eligibility requirements, by
implication, give every citizen the Constitutional right to not be governed by
anyone who does not meet the Constitutional requirements of the office.
Jerry then
announced that the Do It
Yourself Ballot Challenge Kit was now available so that citizens could
file their own cases in every county in Florida. It was made clear that
legal fees to file a case ran about $600 per case. To cover the whole
state, with a suit in each judicial district, we need $13,000. Until
funds are raised for willing, potential plaintiffs who may not be able to fund
their own cases, it was suggested that they team up with other co-plaintiffs to
share the expenses. Two people from Collier and Polk Counties have
already committed to becoming plaintiffs. We need contributions to cover those
cases, at this point.
Larry Klayman’s
encouraging participation by phone was very well received. Larry
emphasized that Florida is the “premier” location for ballot challenges, and is
central for the 2012 election. If Obama can be prevented from being on
the ballot in Florida he cannot win the national election. Larry also
emphasized that money to fund the Florida Ballot Challenge is absolutely
necessary for success. We need $10,000 within the next 10 days to move forward
with this case, which could be pivotal to the entire nation.
Sam summarized
the facts and history of the Obama fraud. Then we opened the meeting to
questions to the floor. The highly interested and well informed attendees asked
significantly relevant questions for more than an hour.
The press
conference broke up at 2:30 PM and a dozen of the principal participants
adjourned to Sam and Bunny Sewell’s home for debriefing and a strategy session
that lasted until 5 PM.
It should be
emphasized that no media outlets were in attendance, despite repeated news
releases being sent to all media outlets in SW Florida.
Videos are in the
process of being edited and should be released soon. Photos are attached.
