DISENFRANCHISEMENT OF VOTERS IN BOUNDARY COUNTY
Registered voters in Boundary County need to know about major problems in the way our elections are managed.
Here, I describe two issues that one voter experienced.
Voting day, in November, many voters did not receive the proper ballots in the mail. One family described how they were lied to by the County Clerk, Glenda Posten. We will call this family, “The Smiths”. The Smiths did not receive the proper ballots in the mail, so that they could vote. They called the Clerk’s Office to find out if they can just show up at the polling station, and have a ballot issued, so that they could vote. The Clerk told them that they had to come into the Clerk’s office, to get a ballot, and that they would not be able to be issued a ballot at the local precinct polling station. This posed a problem for this family. Due to their religious convictions, and health reasons, they were unable to wear masks. This means that they were literally blocked from voting, by the tyrants running the courthouse, and the County Clerk.
The Smiths went to their precinct, in an attempt to vote, regardless of what the Clerk told them. When they arrived at their local polling station, they shared the situation, and the kind ladies who were working there, were able to help. It turned out, that voters could, in fact, have a ballot issued on the spot. It took a simple phone call to the County Clerk’s office. The Smiths were issued their proper ballots, and they voted.
The problem here, is that the County Clerk literally lied to the Smiths, in addition to several other families. It is unknown, how many other families did not go into their local polling station, based on the lies being told to them by the County Clerk.
This County Clerk should be fired, for their conduct.
It is disturbing, and absurd that voters are being forced to use electronic voting machines. The supervisors should make sure that there are proper ballot boxes at their precinct polling station. It is the County Clerk’s office to make sure that the ballot boxes are provided.
My questions is this…
Why are voters not concerned about what happens to their ballots? This is a serious question, that deserves a serious answer. Voters have a duty to care enough about their votes, to ask these questions, and demand their votes get processed, properly.
Wake up, people.
