...the Dems simply don’t want the military vote...it’s way too conservative for them.
So there’s no dispute that it was intentional, leaving only the issue of his motives unresolved.
I noticed that the article failed to mention whether Messieur Delaney was a Repubican or a Demo-rat. Anyone want to place a wager?
Oh, I guess that quote was from Messier Delaney-he’s a Rat? The antecedent’s not clear—he ran as a Demo-rat candidate for county clerk? Election board? In any case, I guess the article did identify him as a Rat.
Inept: PJM Readers Knew Illinois Failed Military Voters, but DOJ Didn’t
Excerpt:
Bob Delaney, the St. Clair County clerk, outright refused to mail nearly 1,500 military ballots until October. He had hoped to include a GOP-spoiling Constitution Party candidate to the ballot. The spoiler never had a chance of getting in the race, and the ballots never mailed to military voters. Whether DOJ will act against such nakedly partisan motives remains to be seen.

I lived in Belleville —St Clair County —for a number of years.
Folks OPENLY brag about how corrupt the Democrat Party is this Southern Illinois county.
To put it in perspective, Only Cook County—Obama’s county-—has more lawyers than St Clair County and we all know what party these folks belong.
