[FourScore]

According to Heath Hausamann' blog:

Apparently three missing ballot boxes from Rio Arriba county, and a fourth from Sandoval County account for the 2% of precincts that have yet to report in the New Mexico caucus, which has Hillary Clinton currently leading Barack Obama by roughly 200 votes.

Well, it appears that the missing Rio Arriba county ballots been found in the home of county Democratic Party Chair Theresa Martinez. Her husband, Sen. Richard Martinez, has endorsed Hillary Clinton.

According to Hausamann:

Several sources told me the ballot boxes spent the night at the home of Rio Arriba County Democratic Party Chair Theresa Martinez, whose state-lawmaker husband, Sen. Richard Martinez, endorsed Hillary Clinton. But Richard Martinez told Santa Fe New Mexican reporter Kate Nash that the boxes actually spent the night in the homes of three polling-place managers. He gave Nash no explanation for why the results from those ballots weren’t reported to the state party last night and why they were instead kept overnight in officials’ homes.

"The site managers locked them and they kept them and they took them to my wife this morning," Nash quoted Richard Martinez as saying.
Regardless of which candidate you support, this is the kind of voter disenfranchisement we've been accusing the GOP of for years, and is absolutely despicable. Please rec this diary, and feel free to forward this information on to whomever you see fit.
