HIDEOUS.
I hope someone gets jail time if this was at all deliberate, which seems certain that it is.

Mary Hererra is blaming the Secretary of State's Office for the screwup! What a shameless piece of trash!
Although, no level of incompetence is beyond good old Rebecca Vigil Herron.

Besides all the finger pointing, has the actual issue been resolved?
To: Disambiguator
770 said more ballots being printed/delivered. Still, damage done.

Not a peep of this from the Journal. From the AbqTrib:
Enough is not quite enough
When U.S. Rep. Heather Wilson showed up at the Church of the Good Shepherd off Tramway Boulevard Northeast to encourage voters in the heavily Republican district to vote, she encountered a stream of voters saying they didn't have a chance.
Precinct 603 had run out of ballots. In a district with more than 2,000 registered voters, Precinct 603 had received 150 paper ballots, said precinct worker Linda Ransom.
Polls opened at 7 a.m. and it quickly became obvious there weren't enough ballots, Ransom said. By 8 a.m., poll workers had called Bernalillo County requesting more. By 9 a.m. the precinct was out.
Beyond the area in which electioneering is prohibited, Wilson workers took the names of voters who had been turned away. A representative of Wilson's challenger, Democratic Attorney General Patricia Madrid, stood nearby.
Additional ballots arrived shortly before 10 a.m. and voting resumed, but Wilson called a news conference for 10:30 to discuss the matter.

From the Journal article:
Donna Price, a poll worker with precinct 537, also at the Tramway and Paseo site, said people waited more than an hour. She said a poll worker at precinct 603 called repeatedly for more ballots.
"It's not fair. It's just like cheating," Price said.
A presiding judge at precinct 57 at Painted Sky Elementary near Unser and Ladera NW said the precinct opened with only 170 ballots and ran out by 8:30 a.m. About 2,500 are registered in the precinct.

Station is now country. I guess Larry Ahrens ego was bigger than his ratings, and as far as CJ the rabbit boy is concerned... feh!
