Well, That’s One Way To Do It

Okay, so the good folks of Klamath County, Oregon, are having an election.  It’s gotten a tad testy.

dumpster-diving1Someone broke into a ballot drop box in Klamath County and apparently threw the mail-in ballots into a nearby dumpster over the weekend, according to the county’s clerk.

The Klamath County Sheriff’s Office is investigating after around 240 ballots were taken from a box near the Klamath Basin Senior Center. The recovered ballots can still be counted, Klamath County Clerk Linda Smith said.

Now I know you are asking yourself, was it Hillary’s or Bernie’s people?  Neither.  They aren’t on the ballot this time in Klamath County.

Klamath County voters are deciding whether to overturn their county’s ban on marijuana dispensaries. Commissioners banned the pot shops shortly after the Legislature allowed cities and counties to do so if voters in those jurisdictions opposed Ballot Measure 91 by 55 percent or more.

So you know it had to be the No Pot people.  Pot People would have put the dumpster trash in the ballot box instead of the other way around, and you’d know who did it because they’d still be giggling the next day.

There was also a nasty little contested State Senate race among Republican candidates pulling all manner of dirty tricks.  But, picking between dirty Republicans appears to be standard procedure in Klamath County.
