On Monday night, less than 48 hours after securing a $15 million settlement from ABC News, Trump filed a lawsuit in Iowa District Court accusing the venerated pollster <strong>Ann Selzer<\/strong> and her polling company\u2014as well as <em>The<\/em> <em>Des Moines Register<\/em> and its parent company, Gannett\u2014of \u201cbrazen election interference\u201d and consumer fraud over her November 2 poll showing <strong>Kamala Harris<\/strong> winning by three points in Iowa. As Trump lawyers <strong>Edward Paltzik<\/strong> and Des Moines-based attorney <strong>Alan R. Ostergren<\/strong> noted in the suit, \u201cPresident Trump ultimately won Iowa by over thirteen points.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Whether that polling error constitutes an \u201celection-interfering fiction,\u201d as the suit alleges, is now the question before a Polk County court. Iowa is notably in the minority of states that lacks an anti-SLAPP law, a protection that gives judges the ability to swiftly toss out frivolous attacks on free speech. But it\u2019s still a long putt: Trump\u2019s newest courthouse adventure leans on an <em>extremely<\/em> aggressive reading of a statute in Iowa\u2019s consumer fraud law intended to prevent businesses from making misrepresentations to deceive purchasers.\u00a0      <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n\t{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\t\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n\tif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n\tn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n\ts.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n\t\t'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('init', '881846199065020');\n\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n\t<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/puck.news\/trump-sues-iowa-pollster-ann-selzer-for-being-wrong\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With five weeks until his return to the White House, Donald Trump is already delivering on his promise to wage legal vendettas against political enemies and journalists, alike.
