No! Scott screwed up. He should have declared an emergency, seized control of the ballots and the station, set up cameras and observers everywhere.
Then, of course, it would have gone before this judge, who would have issued an injunction, but he'd be appealing that, and still have control.
P-9-10! Which is short for "Possession is 9/10 of the law."
Scott wimped out.
Right they should been impounded immediately. As usual we bring marshmallows to a knife fight.
