Are You Kidding Me?

 

I couldn't believe what I was reading.

A county here in our area, that hasn't had a problem-free election since Adlai Stevenson was on the ballot, had an issue with its mail-in ballots.

Really?

I know running an election is difficult business, especially in the current era of computers and vote-by-mail, but why does it happen in the same place, time after time.  Office personnel seem to be in a revolving door, and that's part of the problem.

At least, it was caught and the issue will be fixed.

However, even though there is a remedy, it does erode faith in the process.  You have to wonder what managed to slip through the cracks.

There has to be a better way.
