A lot of these are rock solid conservative townships. You don’t get any more conservative in Michigan than Hillsdale county.

Yes, I'm aware of Hillsdale College, one of the very few colleges in the US that refuses funding from government. Mark Levin regularly talks about them on his radio show.

So is the motivation of the Obama-Holder lawsuit primarily to embarrass and hassle the Michigan SOS and some of these local election clerks?

I don’t really understand what happened. Some of the townships listed are very rural and very sparsely populated. Some of them probably don’t have more than 1 or 2 serving in the military.

Hillsdale county only has a population of around 50,000 total. I just don’t understand how they could mess it up.

I saw my township treasurer this evening and she’s telling me that some of the clerks are saying that they didn’t get the ballots back from the printers till after the deadline. She’s saying that the constant court challenges are getting so bad that they hold things up till the last minute.

She said that one of the soldiers from our township would be voting electronically because he was out in the sticks in Afghanistan when he was transferred from one unit to another.She said it was virtually impossible to track him down. She says the real problem is that the clerks didn’t coordinate with the SOS as well as they should have.

She and I are of the same mind. No one should get ballots until the military all have theirs in hand and the cutoff date for court challenges at least 6 to 8 weeks before the election.
