See this news from Terre Haute, Indiana, which begins: “Although a local judge set a date Thursday to hear a challenge in the city’s mayoral race results, the Indiana Supreme Court may prevent that from ever happening. Judge David Bolk of Vigo County Superior Court Division 3 set the trial for 1:45 p.m. Dec. 17 for Mayor Kevin Burke’s challenge of the election he lost to Mayor-elect Duke Bennett. Bolk also said the recount will start at 9 a.m. Monday. But James Bopp Jr., Bennett’s attorney, on Thursday afternoon filed two mandate actions with the Indiana Supreme Court to overrule Bolk.”
