Sounds like Beth and friends are fixing the elections. I thought this was America? Oh, I forgot, it is crooked Indiana politics. This is VOTER FRAUD in bold faced capital letters!

This primary should be a wake-up call for all about the true reform sneeded in elections. The precincts we have are scary, gerrymandered districts and there are far too many of them to be effectively managed. This is what haunted Doris-Ann Sadler and it is now harming Beth White. My crystal ball tells me that there will be major pushes for reform and consolidated precincts by fall. When people have the wrong ballots for their district and are voting for the wrong candidates... here's an example of something I heard. A little birdy told me of a polling place that houses multiple precincts north and south of 10th street, which means it straddles City-County Council Districts 17 and 21. Voters who live in District 17 were accidentally given Republican ballots for District 21, so they got to choose between Scott Young and Ben Hunter instead of Jody Tilford and Whitmore. So even the Republican election judges/clerks can't get it right. It takes inspectors from both parties to run the show. Because of a simple mix-up like that four different candidates can easily ask for a recount. This will get ugly, fast. Talk about growing pains.

What a horrible job! I was going to vote for my chosen candidates but since this is the way the Democrats run things it is clear they must go!

I just heard the pod cast of Beth White....what a joke. Hey Wilson, why don't you offer some suggestions to Beth on how to run an election. Everyone is waiting for your spin on things.

I guess this is one way for Beth White to eliminate the voted ID, just don't let people vote at all! Abdul, if there is anything left to come back to after the debacle of a primary.
