Citizens for Legitimate Government Protests Bush v. Gore on One Year Anniversary, December 12, 2001
 
Denver, CO; Eugene, OR; Santa Ana, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Costa Mesa, Oakland, Pasadena, CA; Orlando, FL; Washington, DC; New York, NY and other cities nationwide -- December 8, 2001 --  Citizens for Legitimate Government, a national, multi-partisan, pro-Democracy action group, will join forces with Democrats.com and Votermarch to protest on the anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling in Bush vs. Gore. The SCOTUS decision of December 12th, denounced by over 600 legal scholars and several prominent authors, brought an end to vote counting in the state of Florida, and effectively discounted the election.  The decision was legally baseless, and, according to prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi, "criminal." The Court ruled to evacuate the democratic process under the rubric of "equal protection." Tens of thousands of votes were likewise disregarded in Florida, while thousands of others were preempted in a criminal voter purge conducted at Katherine Harris's behest, under the aegis of the Jeb Bush administration.
 
"The US Commission on Civil Rights, the NORC recount results, dozens of news investigations, hundreds of hours of testimony, and thousands of disenfranchised Americans verify that Bush is not a legitimate president. Terrorism, and a war supposedly conducted to avenge it, cannot change this fact."  Michael Rectenwald, Founder and Chair - CLG.
 
Citizens For Legitimate Government is an official sponsor of the candlelight vigil taking place in Washington, DC, as well as the forum in New York, NY, that will be held in the famous Cooper Union Hall. This forum will have speakers including Gov. Ann Richards of Texas and other politicians, actors and activists. CLG also has active members organizing events in cities around the nation. The group has been actively involved in promoting the impeachment of the five Supreme Court justices in the majority opinion in Bush v. Gore and are sponsors of the online impeachment resolution by Rep. Charles O. Porter of Eugene, OR.
 
Citizens for Legitimate Government is a strategic grassroots group created by concerned, tax-paying citizens, after an activist U.S. Supreme Court abandoned its Constitutional obligations and upheld the Republican Party's efforts to eliminate the democratic process from the 2000 presidential contest. The members of the group do not recognize the Bush administration as legitimate. CLG has been involved in actions from flying banners over the last Super Bowl and Rose Bowl, to organizing protests of George W. Bush nationwide, including the Bush protest at Yale University during commencement.
