Trump Files Lawsuit Against Des Moines Register, Pollster J. Ann Selzer
[BREITBART] President-elect Donald Trump
...So far he's been unkillable, and they've tried....
has filed a lawsuit against pollster J. Ann Selzer due to her poll in the days before the election, which absurdly showed him trailing Vice President Kamala Harris
What can be, unburdened by what has been
by three points in Iowa.

Trump attorneys Edward Paltzik and Alan Ostergren filed the 29-page lawsuit Monday in the Iowa District Court for Polk County, seeking a jury trial. They allege that the defendants, including Selzer, the Des Moines Register, which sponsored the poll, its parent company Gannett Co., Inc., and Tribune Company, engaged in ''brazen election interference'' to benefit Harris. Fox News first reported that Trump had filed the suit.

The poll, conducted October 28-31 and published November 2, days before the election, was an extreme outlier. It found Harris with a 47 percent to 44 percent edge on Trump in the former swing state, which he won comfortably in 2016 and 2020.

1 I am not sure how you can miss that bad in a state that you know intimately for years. It’s possible that she cooked the data. Alternately she could be incompetent. If it gets to discovery, we will find out, but I don’t think it will get there under this Iowa statute. The end result will probably be libs suing the three of four accurate pollsters that don’t fall in line with the fakes.

3 Trump’s lawsuit argues that Selzer, the other defendants, “and their cohorts in the Democrat Party hoped that the Harris Poll would create a false narrative of inevitability for Harris in the final week of the 2024 Presidential Election.”

They have been trying to rig elections for some now with their phony polls. I wonder how much they are being sued for? This ought to chill down this fraud and election interference in the election system. Need to go after lawfare with a sledge hammer and wrecking ball as well.
