Another Clinton appointee, another victory for vote fraud.
U.S. District Judge David Lawson today ignored the Department of Justice's reasoning and decreed that Michigan must count provisional ballots even when cast in the wrong precinct(s).

Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, a Republican, had noted that only votes cast in the correct precinct were legal and should count.
In a a friend-of-the-court brief, attorneys for the Department of Justice wrote: "American elections have long been precinct-based. A well-understood premise of such a system is that a voter must appear at the correct polling place - the one to which the voter was assigned, and on whose rolls the voter appears - or else the voter will not be able to vote."
Lawson, like fellow fraud-fostering U.S. District Judge James Carr in Ohio, is a Clinton appointee. The Democrat-run Florida Supreme Court, however, ruled yesterday against such abuses of provisional ballots. A judge in Colorado yesterday issued a mixed ruling.

This is getting ridiculous.
I'm setting up a provisional government and naming myself Chief Dictator and Grand Poobah. Anyone want the position Secretary of Snacks & Beer?
