Request for Injunction to Stop Election Process
This OJ Semans who is mentioned in the affidavit was the head point man during the Democratic voter drive here on the Rosebud.
This should be interesting for the S.D. Republikkkan party.
The Colombe/cohorts have stooped to any level to get control of the Indian monies on the Rosebud Indian reservation.
O.J. Semans has a sister sitting on the Rosebud Sioux Tribal Election board as of right now, Her name is Jaunita Pacheco.

Re: Request for injunction to stop election process
This is a letter for Election challenge for violation of Election Code. On bribery and vote buying and acts of intimidation of vote buying and solicitation.
I. Ernestine Bear Robe received $100.00 from Charles Colombe on 10-23-03 at the Tribal Building at around 11:00 a.m.. O.M. Semes told me that Charles Colombe had something for me and when he returned, O.J. Semens handed me an envelope with (5) 20 dollar bills inside with my name on it. He stated that this was from Charles Colombe and this was given to me for supporting and voting for Charles Colombe.
All this falls under the Ordinance 86-10, Section 903, "Ban on Electioneering, Campaigning and Loitering". Part F, "Campaigning shall pertain to a candidate for office or his/her supporters influencing or attempting to influence the voter or community election judges by word, action or expression."
Also, Section 904, "Penalties for Violation of Ordinances", Part A. "Any person found guilty for crimes under the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law and Order Code. Title Five, Chapter 16-Perjury and Related Crimes; Chapter 26-Forgery and related crimes; Chapter 30-Bribery and Abuse of Public Office, in regard to this Ordinance or for the blatant and deliberate disregard of this Ordinance is subject to the penalties as follows: I. If a candidate for office, disqualification by the Election Board from seeking or holding office. 2. If a Board member or Election committee Member, removal from office by the Tribal Council. 3. If a voter, subject to Tribal Court Action for whatever relevant crimes in the Rosebud Sioux Tribe Law and Order Code.
