How can you have a ballot shortage? Isn't that county 'Rat controlled? Sounds like BS to me, too.

This is total BS with the judge keeping the polls open late. If there is a ballot shortage, they can close the line to vote at normal closing hours and let them vote when the ballots arrive. But what that judge has done is allow people to continue to get into line after the closing time. Totally unjustifiable.

Hopefully the administration and Ashcroft were prepared for this tactic. If the Senate or Gov. race ends up extremely tight, is it possible that the USSC could determine that irreparable harm has been done, throw out the results, and order a new election in AR? Such a remedy would have to favor the GOP in a 2nd vote, but is that a possible remedy?
