Lee Beck Should Apologize
As is being reported on other blogs, people within Lee Beck's failed campaign are spreading false allegations that I voted in Tuesday's municipal elections in Starkville, Mississippi.
I respond:
No one takes allegations of voter misconduct more serious than I do. That said, these allegations should be taken out with the trash. I have only registered to vote in one place, and that place is my home, Lampasas, Texas. I have only voted in that one place. Do you want proof? I encourage you all to contact:
Connie Hartmann
Lampasas County Clerk
P.O. Box 347

Linda Crawford
Lampasas County Tax Assessor-Collector and Voter Registrar
P.O. Box 150

If that's not good enough, contact the people in charge of voter registration and elections in the other places I've lived:

I was in Pottsboro, Texas, last Tuesday (some 500+ miles from Starkville). I have not voted absentee in any election since doing so in Lampasas, Texas, in November 2004.
Lee's allegations and any so-called "proof" he has to back them up are complete nonsense. I challenge him to present his "proof" so that it can be easily bunked. A loser recounting ballots is understandable. A loser making false allegations of election fraud is shameful. I demand an apology.
