Two days to go
By Jim LaMarcaThe most recent news coverage of the potential for voter fraud and the ongoing negativity in the Presidential campaign continues to be constant and consistent. No new claims of massive fraud have surfaced. However I am seeing more comments about voter “suppression” (http://www.sltrib.com/opinion/ci_10875204) than before. I think this is a legitimate concern in many cases because the vote you don’t allow to be placed even by a registered citizen may be more powerful than the vote you try to manipulate in the courts.
The unprecedented early voter turnout also seems to be gong very well. There were a couple of cases where the people in line were being told they couldn’t vote because they wouldn’t get into the polling place in time but in each case the poll officials let it be known that anyone in line at closing time was going to be able to vote. Good civil democracy in action.
Keep your eyes open.
