HEY ERNIE!!!!!
Talk about having it handed to you on a silver platter.
The news has been reporting all afternoon that yesterday's
election in Glendale had problems related to the optical scanner
and the early ballots. Apparently 1/3 of the early ballots were
improperly filled out. Now the city elections office is going to
have to go through and "MANUALLY" determine whether the voter
cast his or her ballot yes or no on the Wal-Mart referendum.
If you think you can swing the margin of error, this might be
a perfect time to file the initiative and then listen for the
sounds from all of that pckering.
g'day
