Yes, Martin County is Republican. But since today they are holding primary, not general, elections, I don’t think that disenfranchising Republicans will help Democrats.

Of course, maybe they’re trying to disenfranchise voters who would be more likely to vote for Allen West for Congress, but given that West’s opponent, Bob Crowder, is the sheriff of Martin County, and that West does not currently represent Martin County, it seems like an odd choice if one wanted to hurt West.

So I think that plain-vanilla incompetence, not electoral chicanery, is to blame here.

Could well be, and most likely targeted at Allen West today.

That doesn’t do a deployed soldier any good.

It is impossible to predict the outcome of this. It is good to put people on alert for November however. So lets go all Pollyanna here and turn those lemons into lemonade.

See post #20, Allen West is clearly on the ballot in Martin County.

If they can get them filled out and drop them off at the Supervisor of Elections office by 7 PM they will be accepted.

What the hell is wrong with Florida? It’s like a third world country within our borders. C’mon Floridians get it together. You obviously have the wrong people in your city clerk positions.

I believe this is a time to count every vote and not to run out the clock. This is not a time for delay, obstruction, and procedural roadblocks. ... ManBearPigalgore

Amazing. I’m sure this will be a national outrage that Holder will investigate. /s

This makes me sad.

Someone needs to get hauled in front of Congress to explain this. .

The buck stops with the politically-appointed Postmaster.

He should be busted and made to go back walking a dog-ridden route in his little Bermuda shorts and pith helmet.
