Three Arlington precincts’ Democratic caucus votes officially won’t count
Fail.
On the Tuesday evening of the March 4th Texas Primary, hundreds of voters filled the cafeteria at Atherton Elementary School in Arlington, waiting upwards of two hours to make their choice for Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton.
Unfortunately, their efforts have been officially nullified, as the Tarrant County Democratic Party confirmed Friday that the envelopes it received for all three precincts (2027, 2235, and 2461) contained...blank forms.
The county party's executive director tells the S-T, "we don't have any record that anything happened there."

Shades of past "elections" .... all over the country! (From hanging chads, to broken voting machines, to more votes than people registered to vote, to no votes registered for any voter...and on and on.)
Shades of things to come in November as well.
A bit Off-Topic perhaps, but isn't one of the war-contractor companies trying to buy Diebold?
