I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that the were ignorant that it was illegal,
but, ignorance of the law is no excuse.
Can you imagine the uproar if black people are actually prosecuted for this? You know that the race mongers would be all over it, saying that these people were arrested for voting, just like the “old south”.
There was a woman in Chicago prosecuted for it. They should ALL be prosecuted for it!!
But the election officials have no excuse. They knew the law, and from that voter roll sheet above, they knowingly allowed people who voted June 3 to vote again.

Well, yeah, you can't blame low information voters not knowing that you can't vote in both, but shouldn't the poll workers know?
I'll go on record now and say that nothing at all will come of this. There will be a lot of pissing and moaning, but what can be done? What remedy to systemic voter fraud is there? Even though you know how these people voted, you can't just subtract their votes from the results. Is there a provision under the law to have yet another run off? I seriously doubt it, because the establishment always protects its own.
As long as those were not provisional ballots held to the side, and identifiable as to which goes with what voter, there is nothing that can be done.
I don't see how anyone can think otherwise.
