And which county in Indiana would that be?
Marion County , includes Indianapolis.
Why should McCain care? There no McCain campaigning in Indiana.
What I heard was the city of Indianapolis.
Well, I don’t know which county it was, but I was standing right there when two perky, young girls came up to me and my boss as we stood outside the BlockBuster Video where we work (in Indiana) and asked if we were registered to vote. I proudly told them YES, for over 10 years, ever since we moved to the county. My boss (God love her)moved from California about 3 years ago and had never done so.(No body’s perfect) They told her (and I agreed at the time) that it hurt nothing to register.
They proceeded to do so. They both had on ‘Obama’ buttons. I will admit that they were very light in pushing his agenda, mainly saying that if my boss had not made up her mind about who to vote for she should pick a topic that was important to her (and the one said ‘Like the economy’) and check the web sites to see who was closest to her views. Then vote for her choice.
Then the other asked me who I was voting for. I certainly didn’t want to start a scene, so I smiled sweetly and said ‘None of your business... I don’t discuss some things with strangers -sex, money, religion or politics’
My boss is a pretty good pal, so I’ll be discussing this with her later just to clear the air, but at the time, not in front of the kool-aid drinkers...
Something I noticed that bothered me -they never checked ID or anything. Just took her word for who she was. The only thing they needed was the last 4 numbers of her social security number. They did not verify anything.
It seemed sloppy and ripe for coruption, so, yeah, this story doesn’t surprise me any....
(This was in a small southern county, just across the Ohio River from Louisville, KY... The one in the story, I don’t know...)
