Snipes Snapped
Quod Verum ^ | 12 Nov 2018 | Saul Montes-Bradley

Brenda Snipes, idiocy and how to destroy the electoral system

Many of us remember the absurdities of the 2000 election. Yes, the one the Democrats refused to accept. That one with pregnant chads, hanging chads, Seances with Ouija Boards to determine the "intentions" of voters and endless recounts.

At the time, the Broward Co. Supervisor of Elections was a nice old lady, Jane Carroll, who had led the office for 32 years and who, as she resigned as the umpteenth recount was about to begin, became the last Republican to head that office (and the only Republican member of the Canvassing Board). She just could not take it, anymore.

After the dust settled, in January of 2001, a new face became Broward County's Supervisor of Elections. Miriam Oliphant. A lass with no experience, no abilities, and no intelligence, but with good connections in the Broward Co. Democratic Party. Her tenure was not long. After royally screwing the 2002 elections and months of pressure, Gov. Bush suspended and then removed her for "…grave neglect, mismanagement and incompetence," not to mention going a cool million over budget and hiring a homeless man she met in a shelter where her sister lived.

I can only imagine Jane Carroll's mirth at seeing how some people were beginning to appreciate her work of three decades. As she stated at the time, though, she did not envy Oliphant. Not one bit.

The Florida Senate took its time, and it finally confirmed her firing in 2005, by a narrow margin…33-6. Miriam darling threatened fire and brimstone and Federal lawsuits alleging, you guessed it, racial discrimination but, alas, we are still waiting for her to file the announced lawsuit. Her friends eventually got her a job as a School Guidance Counselor, with a starting salary of $ 75K...

Okay, so what’s the point of the headline? Did Snipes snap, or did Snipes get snapped by someone else?

If you want the answers to those questions, you'll need to click over to the blogger's site to feed the kitty. (clicks and impressions revenue off the backs of FReepers, not to mention the possibility of getting your computer infected by malware)

Snapped, my ass.

She’s a partisan democrat hack doing exactly what she was instructed to do.

Federal marshals need to stop this vote fraud sh*t now.

Despite having Rick Scott (R) as governor since 2011 and with the Floriduh State Senate (23-R, 17-D) and State House (73-R, 47-D), nothing has been done about stopping election criminality in Broward County or elsewhere in Floriduh.

Who can they blame?

Pretty cool information, though that Miriam Oliphant hired someone from the homeless shelter that she met while visiting her sister.

First for what she’s done in the Elections Dept. But then in the School Department as well.
A quick look at her CV shows this:
Dr Brenda Snipes got a master’s degree in “Curriculum and Instruction for Adults” from Florida Atlantic University, She got a doctorate in “Educational Leadership” from Nova Southeastern University. Both sound like seafood packing companies.
These junk degrees were maybe paid for by employer? Broward School Department and made up of diversity rich courses.
Everything she’s touched should be getting the “Robert Mueller” treatment.....Federal money afterall. Make the case indict her and have her roll on the whole bunch down there.
Wasserman are you hearing this?
