White House Consultant Who Rigged 2004 Election Dies in Plane Explosion

December 20th, 2008

Via: Brad Blog:

The Akron Beacon Journal is reporting that the private plane of the GOP’s highly-placed “IT guru” Mike Connell’s went down in Lake Township, Ohio on Friday evening. Connell was killed in the crash and is reported to have been the only person on board. There are no reports of anyone on the ground being hurt, though his plane crashed in a residential neighborhood.

Connell is a familiar name to readers of The BRAD BLOG as a key witness in the King-Lincoln v. Blackwell lawsuit regarding fraud in the 2004 Presidential Election in Ohio. That recently revived, long-standing lawsuit led to Connell’s recent deposition on November 3, 2008, the day before this year’s general election. According to plaintiff’s lead attorney Cliff Arnebeck in July, a tipster had warned that Connell had been threatened by Karl Rove, as The BRAD BLOG reported at the time, in an attempt to intimidate him into “taking the fall” for Ohio election fraud not long after a motion was filed to lift the stay in that case.

    Renarkably, Boing Boing is treating this in a similar manner.

    The difference in headline is notable however.
