"The Election Commission is not in the business of perpetuating fraud," Artison said, in her first comments since the issue surfaced Friday. "We are all about conducting elections within the purview of the law. Period."Nothing about stopping fraud, punishing fraud, finding fraud, investigating fraud, making sure votes count, etc. It's just, I'm incompetent, but I'm following the law.
Okey dokey. According to the article, the next step in the law is:
Under state law, [Kevin Kennedy, executive director of the state Election Board] said, any that are returned must be sent to the local district attorney's office.Oh yeah, that'll prompt some action if that ever happens. As long as we're using the 2000 race as a comparison of futility, incompetence, negligence and possible fraud, let's ask McCann what he did with the stack of returned postcards from last time. We already know what he did when he was given videotape evidence of voter fraud: nothing.
But that's okay. Just ask Lisa:
"I think clearly there is an agenda at work here," Artison said of criticism she has faced. "Our agenda is conducting elections within the law."Who cares whether the election was fair or not?
