The reality is those Abesentee ballots are sent our in PLENTY of time so if you don't get your fanny in motion why is that anyone's fault but yours and not that is not an excuse to go and vote in person.
Riddick, as you say THIS from a poll worker.
Wise up - the checks and balances are only as effective as those responsible.
According to the original article, the lady's absentee ballot was accepted on Nov. 1, 2012 along with her signature, this a
full five days prior to the election - So, why was it she was concerned it would not be counted in time? Is it 'cause as a poll worker she knows how these things are
supposed to work, and how they ACTUALLY work?
So far as that goes, it appears record-keeping was not all in order - according to the Bureau of Elections, while her name appeared on a list of absentee voters prior to the election, NONE OF the people on it had been "flagged" as absentee voters in the signature poll book - How con
vieeeenient. Wonder whose job
that was?
Seeing as she's been a poll worker for the last twenty-five years, I'd be interested to hear her spin on WHY it was she voted absentee in the first place... I mean, if she expects to be working AT the polls, what's to stop her from casting her vote during break time?
Was she abnormally anxious, like maybe she could be struck by a comet or something before election day? Or maybe it was rather than use a break to vote, she wanted to use any and all her time to "assist" voters - Kinda like how she 'assisted' her grand-daughter, and possibly three other folks with their absentee ballots.
To paraphrase the narrator on the classic TV police drama series, "there are million of stories in the Naked City, and this is one of them." Still, so much as it might be easy to dismiss this as an isolated incident, how many other similar stories might there be among the millions of others left untold?
'Course, if you
don't want those stories told, it's simple -
don't investigate them. If anyone asks why there's no investigation, tell 'em it's a waste of time and resources since it's a well know fact large scale election fraud doesn't exist.
If you ain't looking for something, you can be pretty certain you won't find it...
