One wonders why the local GOP was/is telling everyone to take their ballots to places that can't take them?

- jedberg 6y agoThey're collecting them to turn in en mass. They're putting them in places Republican voters are more likely to already be going to make it easier for Republicans to vote. This is arguably legal under California's ballot harvesting law.
- cosmiccatnap 6y agoThe problem though is that they are claiming it as official which it is not. It's also easy to see how a few ethic names might get lost in this process...
- Spivak 6y agoI really don't see why this kind of thing should be illegal. Aren't we supposed to be happy when people make it easier to vote?
- gremlinsinc 6y agoCouldn't someone gain access to a registry of voters for the dem party, cross reference w/ ballots, and purge non-GOP votes?

If one was a little more motivated, one could also get FEC donation records and also purge GOP voters whose donation history in the current cycle indicate that they were likely to vote out of line with the party endorsements.
- kjaftaedi 6y agoTwo questions: What guarantees do you have that a random gun store is going to deliver your vote to the proper authorities? How can you be sure that all of the people using these boxes know they are handing their ballots to someone not involved in the election at all?
