Why Theresa LePore must go (voting in Palm Beach County!!!!!)

[Vickers]

OK, I'm getting ready to go vote in our primary elections today.

I look at my voter registration card, it says to go to an elementary school near me. I show up, no signs, no directions, nothing. I go inside the office "Hey, are you guys a voting location?"

"Nope."

!!!!!

So I call the toll-free number for that dumb cow Theresa LePore (Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections, creator of the infamous butterfly ballot), and I get an all circuits busy about 10 times. Finally call the regular number, and a really rude lady answers. It goes something like this:

Me: Hi there, I'm trying to vote, but my voter registration card has the incorrect voting location.

Her: What does it say?

Me: Citrus Cove Elementary School.

Her: And nobody is there?

Me: Is that a voting location? I can tell you my precinct number if that would help.

Her: Just give me your name.

Me: OK, but I can give you the precinct number and my voter registration number, and everything should pop right up.

Her: Sir, I just need your name, not your precinct number.

Me: OK (I give her my name, and have to spell EVERY SINGLE PART OF IT, even though it is a common name).

Her: OK, now your address.

Me: (same thing...you don't know how to spell DRIVE?!?!?!?!).

Her: What is your precinct number?

Me: Oh, NOW you need that? (then I tell her)

Her: I need a telephone number.

Me: You mean, you don't have that information handy? Where folks should go to vote if you have their address and precinct number?

Her: Sir, I will have to call you back.

That was 45 minutes ago.

Going to find it online now!

1. My parents live in Fla too.

They said it is all fucked up there too.

2. There has to be someone to contact about this. Even from Kerry's

campaign. They should have a hot line phone number to report these kind of problems to. Then a team to follow up on the complaints immediately.

3. This woman is a REPUBLICAN

It is her job to screw up elections in a democratic area. Why the hell can't democrats get their act together and get rid of this woman?

5. Bingo! Her "Democrat" cover was blown long ago!

She is a total REPUKE!!

4. Maybe Jeb and Theresa decided to PURGE your entire precinct

If you live in a Democratic-leaning precinct it is just possible.

After all, there may be a registered voter in your precinct who is a convicted felon. Why take chances?

"Purge them all and let God sort them out!"

Historical note: Change 'purge' to 'kill' and you get the Poppy Bush-supported Contra's favorite slogan.

6. You should contact Palast about that. He is following her works

again in FL. Have you seen his article http://www.gregpalast.com/ it is right on his front page. Sounds like she has been re elected already (or will manage to find the votes to be). Something needs to be done. This isn't democracy yet we have people dying to get it in Iraq.
