Election larceny
When it comes to cops — at least sheriffs — sometimes there just isn't any justice, reports Rebecca Walsh in the Tribune.A recent investigation found that 9 percent of the 600 Daggett County voters who put Rick Ellsworth in office by 20 votes were frauds. Says Walsh:
Fifty-one people registered and voted illegally in that 2006 race - 14 listed Ellsworth's parents' address and at least three share his last name. ...State Democratic Party Director Todd Taylor says the voters who illegally cast their ballots in Daggett County should go to jail and Ellsworth, "If he were an honorable person, knowing full well that he gained the office illegally, he would step aside and run for re-election this year in a fair contest."
But Ellsworth will continue in office. Investigators could not find any proof that he masterminded the scheme. .... Ellsworth will finish out his four-year term, unscathed.

Unfortunately it's not going to change; McBush is going to wipe the floor with Mr. "Yes We Can" after the media portrays him as a Muslim terrorist-supporter, and we're going to be living under republican rule for four more cruel years.
