Indian Giver


A federal judge ruled today that Republican poll workers in Lake Andes, South Dakota were intimidating Native American voters.

The ruling comes after Democratic Sen. Tom Daschle sued his opponent, John Thune, and the GOP in federal court in Sioux Falls on Monday, asking [U.S. District Judge Lawrence] Piersol to stop what Democrats say was intimidation of voters.

Piersol, whom Daschle chose for the federal bench, released his opinion about 1:45 a.m. today after hearing one witness from each side.


Piersol also ordered Thune to stop freezing Hell and running over old ladies with his flying car. When Thune stated that he did not have a flying car, Piersol charged him with contempt.
