Did you see the newest headline on the Drudge Report?: ” I WENT TO VOTE AND HARRY REID’S NAME WAS ALREADY CHECKED!” It appears that more than a few folks in Nevada are complaining that when they’ve gone into their voting booths, the electronic touch screen they use to vote is already checked for Harry Reid!
Of course the Election Officials claim there is “no fraud” and that the voters must “have faith in the system”.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the detailed story from Las Vegas Fox 5 News.
According to Larry Lomax, Clark County Registrar of Voters (the Nevada equivalent of Dan English): “This election, I think, more than ever. The two sides are very fractured and each side is suspicious and we’re caught in the middle.”
No, Mr. Lomax, you’re not caught in the middle. You’re just caught.

Actually, I do have faith in the system. It’s the people running and manipulating the system that make me a tad twitchy.

“Faith in the system.” Hmm. Is that the same “system” that requires a mandatory absentee ballot request record to be kept by city and county clerks and open to public inspection for each election, but when that part of the “system” is ignored by city/county election officials (even though it is required under municipal election law as well as county election law) the “powers that be” determine that this specific record is not important and something else, totally unrelated, (which something else is, according to the city/county clerks, unreliable because it is a ‘living document’ that changes from day to day) materializes out of “thin air” to take its place? Hmm. “Twitchy”…I like that word.
