“I don’t know what to do about it. Do you have any ideas.”

Yep, sure do, Jonathan….but aside from talking to others between now and then, we really can’t act until November…

It’s so very infuriating to see all the signs about the primary coming up on Tuesday and to realize that we could have done it so much more honestly if we had just joined in with the primary. But then, the people who wanted things to go “just their way” would not have been as pleased as they are now.

“McQuigg’s lack of reported activity regarding the overvotes and her endorsement of Faisal already show that she lacks integrity. Not the sort of person one wants in a court clerk position, actually.”

…and so, jonathan, what we gonna do about that?

They also would have needed to check whether the unregistered voter was a felon, since felons can’t vote.

Another way to do it is only reslease one precinct (or 2 or 3 if they are small turn-out) at a time to vote. cuts down on the wait in line and any confusion. Of course the elections folks should’ve had the registration sheets to check people off as having received a ballot (that they didn’t is simply ridiculous).

In other conventions i’ve attended it is common practice to have people go back to the credentials check in table to receive their ballot (thus the double check by their name) and then their badge is hole punched (or marked with a permanent marker on the badge, not the plastic where it can be rubbed off) when they put their ballot into the box.

Bottom line, the over-voted precincts should NOT have been counted. If there is 3 over-votes, why not 23? or 33? No way to know, so they have to go. You hate to “disenfranchise” the legitimate voters, but that’s what should’ve been done. The disenfranchised voters should be angry at those who bungled the process.

Greg L — you’re right on the law of the jungle, but that’s why there’s an appeal process. Once an appeal is filed (has there been??) the wheels will turn and I do believe that the party (that i love so much) will ultimately right the wrong here. However, I’m hearing that there are those who are insisting that the appeal process doesn’t start at the next level above (i.e. 11th District) but at the Legislative District Committee level, which in this case is a committee of one. I don’t know if that’s true - it would seem ridiculous in this case - but that’s the rumor. So while the wheels may turn, they may be very slow…

Once the convention starts, there is no law but that of the jungle in a party primary. Whoever can fix the outcome the best wins, pure and simple.

I wonder because the rules specifically state that you are not yet registered SOLELY because the books are closed.

If those items weren’t checked by credentials, then we really have no way of knowing if the “late” paperwork would be the only reason they weren’t registered.

Also, I’ve heard that the credentials committee said that they were being very “lenient” with errors on forms so as not to violate the Voting Rights Act. If they were indeed being lenient, then they were, in fact, violating the Voting Rights Act. There is no room for discerning the “intent” of voters such as went on in the Florida debacle. There are precisely proscribed procedures and they must be followed to a ‘T’, lest one violate the Voting Rights Act.

From a practical matter, I am not sure how scores of volunteers dressed in headscarfs walking precincts is going to help the Gill campaign. If these ladies campaign door to door in burkas with face coverings, many voters will not be pleased.

“She can’t run a simple election…don’t trust her with the county’s legal documents. What if she creates extra, unaccounted for documents like she created extra, unaccounted for voters at her convention?” I can imagine it now.

I would also be concerned about Sapenita LLC lobbying clients getting access to the courthouse through McQuigg and her pal Faisal.

McQuigg’s lack of reported activity regarding the overvotes and her endorsement of Faisal already show that she lacks integrity. Not the sort of person one wants in a court clerk position, actually.
