That is NOT RIGHT | 8:23 a.m. March 13, 2008
It seems that the fall for the Presidental Primary elections should have gone with the Clerk/Auditor who gave the directions and "took full responsibility" for the misjudgement.

If this was truly restructuring, then it would have occurred long ago after Mr. Thompson took office.

I expected more integrity from Mr. Thompson.

Bryan Thompson is the one that ought to be demoted. He is the one that is responsible for the elections problems, not only this election but the mess up that occurred in 2006 due to his lack of knowledge about the electronic voting machines. Thompson: admit you messed up and resign.

Spin it how you will--the appearance is Sandy is the scape goat. Thompson should have stood up and accepted accountability and moved on all would have been forgiven. But this ducking and weaving and punishing Sandy for doing her best with what she was given to work with is cowardly.

Well, it is funny that Stranded knows nothing at all about elections. Kim Jackson was Clerk in the 2006 elections.

The comments from Scapegoat and NOT RIGHT seem too insider, like Ms Hoffmann herself or some of her smoking buddies in the County Building made the comments.

When someone is responsible for something and it goes horribly wrong they are held to account. This is exactly what has happened and new people have been put in charge of elections.
