So you're saying that a less biased judge would have had no problem with trying to intimidate Native American voters by writing down the license plates of their cars?
eta: Let me be perfectly clear. I am certainly not suggested that anyone who supports Thune or opposes Daschle is a racist. But believe me, South Dakota has its share of bigots, and the animus there tends to be more focused on Native Americans than other minority groups.

Daschle's lawsuit sought an injunction prohibiting GOP monitors from polling places statewide.
The ruling stated that GOP operatives were not permitted to write down license plate numbers of voters in a particular county.
If anything, Daschle's "victory" was nothing more than a decisive loss - couched in polite terms by an old friend to save Daschle further embarrassment.
