PA Election Officials Are Burnt Out And Leaving Their Jobs After 2020 Nightmare

Karen Vibert-Kennedy / Sun-Gazette In the weeks before the general election, Sara May-Silfee’s office was overwhelmed. Phone calls from voters were incessant. Lines of people formed outside the building to apply for and cast mail ballots. In one instance, she said, impatient voters began chants outside her office that the waiting times amounted to voter suppression. The Monroe County elections director even got in the habit of closing her office’s shades at night, she said, because voters would knock on the windows, as late as 9, looking for assistance. “It was a nightmare,” May-Silfee said. “Everything was a nightmare.” Even before the pandemic emerged this spring, county election directors said they warned lawmakers and state officials that huge changes to Pennsylvania’s voting system were too much, too fast. Other states took years to implement statewide no-excuse mail voting. They had a few months.

Now world can see through our hollow record on climate

Now world can see through our hollow record on climate We’re sorry, this service is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Dismiss Now world can see through our hollow record on climate December 15, 2020 12.00am Normal text size Credit: With British calls not to endorse Mathias Cormann to the OECD ( UK Labour tells PM to blacklist Cormann s OECD bid , December 14), and with the snub to Scott Morrison over the weekend ( Every country must declare a climate emergency: UN chief , December 14), the world is starting to see through our hollow record on climate change. It is quite clear that we need to look in our backyard before looking to play on the world stage. And that is a backyard ravaged with out of control bushfires and extensive flooding on the east coast. Our politicians can live in the Canberra bubble for only so long. -

Peoria mayoral candidates kicked off ballot for not enough signatures

PEORIA  The field of candidates for the city s next mayor has narrowed to five as the Peoria County Board of Elections voted to remove two candidates from February s ballot for failure to collect enough signatures.  Pastor Chuck Brown and Couri Thomas were both stricken from the primary ballot. Neither man had enough signatures of registered Peoria voters who lived at the addresses listed in their petition.  Both men, however, appeared to take the decisions in stride and to continue their quest to lead the city. Brown said he would try to conduct a write-in campaign and expected to be mayor in April. Only one area candidate in the last several decades  Aaron Schock running for a Peoria Public Schools board seat  has succeeded as a write-in against those with their names on the ballot.
