Phone Jamming Conviction

phone jamming convictionJames Tobin, of the Republican Party, was convicted of jamming the phone lines in New Hampshire during a 2002 election. He apparently made over 2 dozen calls to the White House with in 3 days, but the defence say that they were just routine election business calls. Most of the calls came from Tobin, but other there were other calls that were made from a number of people. There is also a connection between a telemarketing firm in Idaho that made calls and hung up, consequently they will be indicted.
In total Tobin made 115 outgoing calls to the same number at the White House, as indicated by the phone bills brought out as evidence at his trial.

It seems as though there are a lot of players in this scheme, people who knew about it, people who were involved in it, and people who say they had no idea about it. As the Democratic National Committee spokesman Damien LaVera said Monday: “With every development in this case, there are new questions about the extent to which key national Republicans had knowledge of or were involved in a criminal scheme to keep New Hampshire voters from getting to the polls. The American people have a right to know whether the White House political director, who today sits as chairman of the national Republican Party, had any hand in it.”
