Both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama’s campaigns alleged that supporters of their rival candidates were trying to circumvent Texas Democratic Party rules by circulating sign-in sheets before tonight’s precinct conventions.
The sign-in sheets are crucial because they are the documents precinct chairmen will use to calculate how many delegates each candidate will win from tonight’s caucuses. Both campaigns alleged numerous reports across the state of such activity.
The Texas Democratic Party distributed a memo today repudiating the practice of campaigns filling out sign-in sheets in advance, which the Clinton campaign described as “underhanded tactics.”
“We want every Texas voter to know that sign-in sheets distributed before the primary polls close, will not count,” said Ace Smith, state director of the Clinton campaign, in a statement. “We encourage them to participate in their precinct convention by showing up at their polling location at 6:30 p.m.”
The Obama campaign alleged that Clinton supporters had solicited signatures on sign-in sheets in Dallas, El Paso, Jefferson and Tarrant counties
This is too much fun.
yeah. thank God for the comic relief; the reality is too bloody disturbing.
“we” ....eeerrrr....There was a sign up sheet at or polling station earlier. They asked if you were going to attend the caucus and if so to sign on the sheet. Wonder if that was a sign-in or a sign-up sheet?
And the politicians wonder why no one trusts them. Either they are both crooked or they are lying about each other being crooked or they are both right or one is crooked but the other isn’t. How do you tell when liars are telling the truth? I have no idea.
accusations and allegations of electoral shenanigans , who’d a thunk? ;-)

Pass the popcorn - looks like it’s a double feature!
Thanks for the links!
No problemo, my pleasure. ;-)
Corrupt Democrats cancelling each other out, LOL!
Take notes though, they will use these tactics in November if they can.
These reprobate socialists are soooo predictable. We knew the lawyers would come into play -— the question was just when. Get out the popcorn -— let the American ignorant watch as the liberal jackals fight over the rotting carcass.
I pray that day one begins tomorrow, the first day of her retirement.

Rich!
Karl Rove is just mean!
this is not news. this is expected behaviour.
>> They asked if you were going to attend the caucus and if so to sign on the sheet.
Maybe you should go to the caucus and find out what’s up.
When I voted, they asked if I was going to the caucus — only so they knew whether or not to give me the slip of paper that verifies I voted in the primary. But they filled it all out; I didn’t sign it and I took it with me.
The only thing I signed was the voter roll.
