Get a clue, Mr. Judy

Cody Judy apparently felt that more people would have voted for him had there been pens or pencils available in all of the voting booths and had voters been instructed that they could write in a name on their ballots. He intends to waste my tax dollars by testing this contention in court.

Last week, I served as an election judge in a precinct where pencils and pens were available. Of more than 1,000 ballots cast, only 12 had write-in names. And they were spread out over several offices. I remember when Judy ran as a candidate for Congress during the state Democratic Convention in 2002. He received very little support then, just as he did last week. Get the message, Mr. Judy. The electorate does not want you.
