GILMORE: Let's do the objections before I call Mr. Vance. I will object to Paragraph 5 and to the blogs referred to in Paragraph 5 and attached to Mr. Vance's affidavit, to the extent they're offered with the truth of the matters contained in them regarding crossover voting. That's a hearsay objection. I object to the last seven words of Paragraph 7, to the extent that it's based upon hearsay about crossover voting. I object to Paragraph 14, to the extent that it's based on hearsay about crossover voting. I object to Paragraph 6, because neither the original nor a duplicate of the newspaper advertisement referred to in that paragraph has been provided in the affidavit. This objection is under the Thousand Series of the Federal Rules of Evidence; and I also object on grounds of hearsay. I object to the last sentence of Paragraph 9, for lack of documentation of outside money through Sunshine reports or other 2 (Pages 2 to 5) (208)345-9611 M & M COURT REPORTING (208)345-8800 (fax) Dockets.Justia.com Summary of Comments on Vance Deposition.ptx Page: 2 Number: 1 Author: user Objections to Vance Affidavit Subject: Sticky Note Date: 10/3/2010 4:12:57 PM Author: lwinmill Subject: Sticky Note Date: 10/12/2010 10:43:37 AM Sustained as to para 5 to extent that it is offered to prove that the author intended to cross over.
