Arkansas Garland County Election Commission Chairman Charles Tapp SHUTTING DOWN POLLING STATIONS!
Edited on Tue Jun-08-10 04:11 PM by Gates9
"A voting drama looms in Arkansas' Democratic senate race between incumbent Sen. Blanche Lincoln and Lt. Gov. Bill Halter.

The battleground? Garland County, a populous county that sits 55 miles from Little Rock.

It was the most heavily populated county that Halter won in the May 18 primary. On that day, the county had 41 polling places open, but for Tuesday's runoff, there will only open two in order to save money."

Get Out and Vote, People!

2. I hope the judge will be issuing an emergency order to keep the poll open for a couple of hours
and Tapp ordered to add more booths, then placed in jail for 30 days for tampering.

3. If Halter loses by a close margin there should be an immediate lawsuit.

4. As I've said on numerous prior occasions
the reason the DLC really couldn't give a fuck about preventing electoral fraud, is because THEY use it. :grr:
