(NEWSER) – Majed Moughni lost Michigan’s Republican primary against incumbent Rep. John Dingell, who just so happens to be the longest-serving member of Congress. Even so, Moughni blames just one entity for his loss: Facebook. And now the attorney is suing the social networking site—not for money, but for an injunction that would halt premature account closing. Moughni, who came in fourth in the August primary, wants to know why Facebook shut down his page, cutting him off from his 1,600 friends, in June.
Moughni believes it was shut down because he criticized one of his opponent’s views (related to a ... baseball game), but a Facebook spokesperson tells the Detroit News it was shut down for suspicious behavior, and adds that Moughni would have been warned before the account was closed. Moughni had been adding 20 to 100 new friends a day at the time. He says he “had no chance without Facebook. They disorganized us in the middle of our campaign and we lost.” Then why, AllFacebookwonders, did did Moughni wait more than six months before filing a suit?
