No Election Problems Here

Hmmm. It turns out that 27% of the November election ballots cast in Medford, a city of 4,300 in Taylor County, were not counted. That's about 600 votes. That is a lot.

Had it happened in Milwaukee, the Republican Party and the Journal Sentinel would be all over it. They'd call it more evidence of abuse, fraud, mismanagement, incompetence or all of those things. Obvious solution? Photo ID cards for voters.

But nary a peep from the GOP or the newspaper on this one. Unless you read the
Wausau Daily Herald story you would never know it happened.

Why do you suppose that is?
