3. Damn vote supressor - that guy needs to be sued out of office
Why does he get to decide which votes count? He is not the elections official he is the voter registrar. I would think that Kaufman would have some say in that - but oh, she's of the same party as Bettencourt - so enough said.

And you can see "how transparent" the new SOS is. She is supposedly covering his butt.

Bettencourt said he gave a Democratic representative, Collyn Peddie, a tour of his provisional ballot processing system last week but refused on the advice of the Secretary of State's Office to allow anyone to serve as a monitor.


I'm not sure I would believe anything this guy says. He also claimed in previous interviews with the media that he had requested new registration forms from the SOS' office and that none had yet been delivered to his office. When the news reported checked with the SOS office, they said they had delivered some 50,000 new forms to Harris. He obviously conveniently lost them so he could continue using the older, more confusing registration forms so he could continue disenfranchising people.
:grr:
