Blackwell strikes in Ohio again...

[Selteri]

This isn't latest breaking news, but it just came to my attention that at least the dems are fighting for their jobs.

This after Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell's office ordered the removal of all four members of the Lucas County board of elections last week as punishment for trouble during the November election.

Now, three weeks before a special election that will involve most of the precincts in the county, the most senior administrator is elections Director Jill Kelly, who has been in her current job only since January.

Mr. Blackwell's office has kept the county office on administrative oversight, and so it is in charge. But does this mean he will send people up here to run the board temporarily? It's unclear. And if he does, will he send both Democrats and Republicans?

------------

Mr. Blackwell had wanted all 88 counties to buy optical-scan equipment, in part to put an end to the debate over voting equipment in Ohio. While Lucas County was not alone in contradicting Mr. Blackwell on the voting machine issue, it may be the most vulnerable now, since the new board members will have to re-examine the issue from scratch.

1. there is no pointing fighting them...

we don't have a prayer at winning, lets just surrender and be done with it.

Let us save ourselves time and state's coffers money by having Mr. Blackwell decreed as the next guvnor without any term limits.

There is no end in sight to their manipulations and machinations...
