Sam "The Scumbag" Reed: let's work to hurt democracy.

.
Unfortunately, this state is cursed with arguably the worst Secretary of State in the United States today: Sam Reed.

Reed, an utter embarrassment as Secretary of State, has done nothing to increase the security of our elections.

He has done nothing to make sure that those who register to vote are citizens.

He has done nothing to make sure that the votes come in actually belong to the voter named.

What he HAS done is whine and snivel about how "hard" it is to keep convicted felons from voting, so instead of doing his damned job, he worked to increase the leftist vote by allowing felons to vote before they have completed their sentences.

There was a crock of crap about how that somehow aids in the rehabilitation process, as if someone knocking over a 7-11 gives a rat's ass about their voting rights, but in the end, it's all about making it easier on HIM.

Search this blog under "Reed" and a large number of posts detailing his incompetence will pop up.

This lowlife moron had EIGHT YEARS to get a system in place to keep track of felon voters, and did not one damned thing to make that happen.

Well, except to SEND over 20,000 felon voters VOTER REGISTRATION FORMS before the last election in 2008.

He damned sure did THAT.

And now this scumbag is down here shilling yet another of his whiny little "I'm working too hard" proposals: No votes counted after Election Day.

That this clown doesn't understand that people deserve the right to make sure their vote counts FAR more than they deserve some esoteric, not necessary right to know who won on election night (and where the hell does it say THAT in the Constitution?) is the thing.

As moronically clueless now as he has been throughout his despicable tenure, Reed seems to think that making it easier on Reed trumps making every conceivable effort to get every legal vote counted, even if that is days after the official election date, as long as it takes place before the elections are certified.

So, in Reed's twisted world, if the Post Office screws up and mishandles your vote, well, that's just too damned bad.

One has to wonder what this empty suit would think if it was HIS vote that got trashed because someone ELSE screwed up. Would that be OK with you, Mr. Secretary?

Reed babbled:

But Reed, a Republican, said that every time he introduces legislation to move up the state's deadline for ballot returns, he runs into a brick wall.

Each time, "It's virtually DOA," he said. "Incumbents seem to think (the current system) works fine.

Maybe, that's because it DOES work fine, you blithering idiot!

No one else listens to Reed, so his nonsense about "regional primaries" is just as dead as his politics.

Reed needs to start focusing on the issues that really matter: proving eligibility to vote, proving identity to vote, completing your sentence to vote... and stop worrying about finding ways to keep those whose votes SHOULD count from actually doing so. Because, frankly, you clueless moron, if the job's too damned tough, then resign and let somebody else handle it.

Meanwhile, stop sniveling, you wretch. It just reminds me why I will never support your election to anything, ever.
