Bill Brock wrote on the New York Times website at at
http://gambit.blogs.nytimes.com/2007...s-on-her-blog/ : - Irony aside, given that Mr. Truong & Ms. Polgar ran a reformist campaign ("clean up the USCF"), isn't the timing a bit suspicious? You'd think this was a Teamsters or UMW election-I'm originally from the anthracite region, so Jock Yablonski http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Yablonski comes to mind ;-) Thank you Bill Brock (who is a defendant in my lawsuit and I have rarely had occasion to thank him for anything) because the examples of the United Mine Workers and the Teamsters Union are exactly what I had in mind when I filed my lawsuit to overturn the election results. Of course, our case is not so extreme as those cases, as us chess players are not going to go around killing each other, but the legal principles are the same or similar. Polgar and Truong ran for election on a reformist campaign to "clean up the USCF" and "save the children". They wanted to "save the children" from me, of all people. (I have eight children.) Now it turns out that to win this election they wrote 2463 obscene emails and newsgroup postings, all supposedly signed by me. (By the way, Polgar would have been elected no matter what but Truong squeaked in by a bare margin.) Not only did the USCF members not know about this but the members did not even know that they were married to each other, a fact that was uncovered by their election opponents just before the vote count. This organization has 86,000 members and represents the USA Internationally. I believe that there is enough here for the Department of Justice to come in, to overturn the election results, and to have a fair new election. Sam Sloan |
