ALABAMA COURT TO ELECTION OFFICIALS: DON’T PRESERVE ELECTRONIC BALLOT RECORDS

JD Wed, 12/13/2017 - 12:09

In a move blasted by voting rights experts as an affront to transparency, the Alabama state Supreme Court granted local election officials permission not to preserve electronic ballot records less than 24 hours before polls opened – records that could form the basis of a recount.

The Alabama state Supreme Court’s ruling overturned an injunction issued by a lower court in Montgomery, the state capital, which had ordered election officials across the state to preserve digital images of the ballots cast in the Senate race between Republican Roy Moore and Democrat Doug Jones.

Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill appealed the lower court’s injunction to the state supreme court at 4:38 PM on Monday afternoon and the justices came back with their ruling at 5:18 PM – an usually quick turnaround time.

Unfortunately, ALL American courts are corrupt today. Unfortunately, the only solution is purging the US Congress of the Republicrats and even the courts are involved in that procedure, e.g. the railroading of Roy Moore. I really don't see any clear path out of America's malaise other than violent revolution, unfortunately, and even the outcome of violent revolution isn't guaranteed.
