Too bad Washington doesn’t have a Governor that would be inclined to pardon her . . . Governor could get good press.

[Political Junkie Too]

Prosecutors said they would recommend she be sentenced to 10 hours of community service...

She should ask to be a poll-watcher in the next election.

How about volunteering with the county voting department during the next election?

It’s OK, the dog has a better grasp of the issues than the owner.

A dog, the dead, illegals - it’s all the same.

This may be the answer to why Jazz isn’t eating. He wants to vote.

[Lurker]

I think the prosecutor is barking up the wrong tree.

My 130 lb. bull mastiff would not be very good for us. He would definitely vote democrat. In fact, my husband and I jokingly say that we are his WIC. He sleeps all day, wakes up at night. He earns no money, yet always has a full bowl of kibble. He has yet to pay for a vet bill.

Acting Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg says his office “can’t simply look the other way. They say you should let sleeping dogs lie, but you can’t let voting dogs vote.”

She said she submitted ballots in the dog’s name in the September and November 2006 and May 2007 elections. She wrote “VOID” on the ballots and didn’t cast any votes.

Duncan, the Australian Shepherd-Terrier mix, responded to Acting Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg with this statement; “Hey Dan, I didn’t vote. So lick me!”

This woman’s form of protest is pretty darn good.

[WorkingClassFilth]

That’s nothin’. One of my old dogs was a licensed minister and would pray on command. Drove the religionists in the family nuts, but he was as genuine as most of his official colleagues and more godly than many.

This was voter fraud with the intent to get away with something. It was an attempt to highlight how flawed the system is. Bravo to her. Sort of like the person who carries a box cutter on board an airplane just to prove the security system doesn’t catch everything.

They know what they are doing is wrong but they see no other way to get official attention.

The problem, of course, is statists hates to have their own incompetence illustrated for them so they have to make sure to severely punish anyone who shows them up.

Acting Prosecuting Attorney Dan Satterberg says his office "can't simply look the other way. They say you should let sleeping dogs lie, but you can't let voting dogs vote."

The authorities in DC didn't seem to have any problem "looking the other way" for Sen. Webb's aide that tried to carry a handgun into the Capitol. All charges were "dropped." And any number of other cases for the politically priviledged class.

She should ask the judge to sentence her to 10 hours in county lock-up instead of the 10 hours community service, then, sell the story to NBC for $1 Million dollars.

She proved her point, but unlike the hundreds that have registered illegally and those who have voted illegally, she will be punished. Just a reminder for any of us who dare step out of place.

Just about all of King County's election workers should be thrown in jail for violating and breaking countless federal, state and locals laws.

By the way I bet they kept the dog's registration and have already got a ballot ready for the next election in case they fall short.

[cookcounty]

Her crime was embarrassing the corrupt election officials.

[ladyinred]

Too funny! Of course, the dog most likely knows the issues better than some humans!

[Stultis]

No one’s asked the obvious question:

IS THIS A BLACK DOG?

If so this is a clear cut case of “voter intimidation”. Alert the NAACP!

[DakotaRed]

Ironic they don’t go after some of those who filled out the “found ballots” from King County each recount, until Fraudaire won.

[upchuck]

Don’t tell anybody, but I listed my dog as my son in the 2000 census. That was an interesting experiment. About six months later he started getting credit card offers in the mail. Name was exactly the same, even the fake middle initial. Wonder what that says?
