Broward elections official assailed by GOP, still short of poll workers (Political Cleansing)

State officials were asked Wednesday to rule on whether Broward County Supervisor of Elections Miriam Oliphant’s plans for this year’s elections violate Florida law. The request for a state ruling came the same day the supervisor conceded she was in “dire need of a minimum of 112 volunteers” to staff next Tuesday’s primary. The volunteers would staff 14 locations where votes will be transmitted via modems to the Broward County elections office’s central computers.

In a letter to state election officials, George LeMieux, chairman of the Broward Republican Party, asked for a ruling on whether Oliphant, a Democrat, must have both Republican or independent poll workers along with Democrats in each precinct.

Florida law states that no precinct can be staffed exclusively by members of one party.

“We are very concerned with this,” LeMieux said. “You must have different parties represented at each polling place.”

Oliphant has refused to comply with the law, LeMieux said. He said that she “refused to tell us how many Republican poll workers she had. I don’t think she knew.”

The Supervisor of Elections is politically cleansing Republicans from working at the polls so yet more voter fraud can be perpetrated in Broward County.

More than a third of Broward’s almost 1 million voters have had their polling locations switched, causing some to travel miles to vote. Many voters complained that they received two new voters cards in the mail telling them to vote in two different polling locations. Others said their dead relatives received cards. Still others said they have been told to vote in cities other than where they live. Meanwhile, other South Florida counties reported few of the problems that Broward was experiencing.

Dead relatives are an important Demmycrat voting constituency.

Oliphant said the election will be reassessed after November to eliminate any problems found next week and in November.

Translation--After we have successfully tipped the result of the next elections we promise we will fix any of the problems which have already been pointed out to us over and over..... Right! And if you believe we will do any fixes then either...except at the point of a gun or a court order with guns behind it...You can forget it! I have a bridge to the Keys to sell you...
