Why would he search for those people?
Because he believes random means haphazard. Showing any kind of haphazardness (like if some people who applied on 5th or 6th won and others who applied on 5th or 6th did not win) helps him to make a point there were no simple rules during selection process, and he will make a point the results were haphazard. Haphazard is one of the meaning of the word random, but not the one that makes sense in the context of the law.Why would he search for those people?
Agreed. See discussion on facebook http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/dv2012Because he believes random means haphazard.

It is like if the law says "The lottery will be drawn on Red Square", but actually occurred not in Moscow, but on a small square in the suburbs St. Petersburgh by mistake. Then comes Mr.White and says that this square has a couple of red bricks, so the law was in fact followed. And now he is looking for guys who saw those red bricks on that square to prove his point.
That is his plan, to show haphazardness. Because he wants to prove it was random already.Why does he need to show 'haphazardness' by getting a few people to show that they did not win...
The KCC already has records of everything, and everyone, and they have records showing all people who submitted on the 5-6th and did not win.
The court can easily procure that data without asking each non-winner.

Because depending on the results it might be relevant. And if it is relevant, then court might ask DOS to do something.if that is not relevant to the case, why are we collecting this info?
DOS has to do something to present the data, on top of what DOS already does. That might delay other work DOS is doing. That is why unless court really thinks it is relevant, it will not ask DOS for anything.the DOS doesn't have to calculate nothing. its on the record.
I don't actually see meaning into these info Mr. White is collecting! I mean, there should be more that 10,000 applicants on those two days, and the computer was only programed to select only 100,000, so of course, not every person that submitted his/her entry the first two days will be selected!
