A Good Campaign........Now Pray for an Accurate Count!!

The election is tomorrow for my run for San Bernardino County District Attorney; I've done all I can do as a grass roots activist (other than a last minute radio interview, which I just finished, answered a few Facebook questions and fielded a few wishing-you-well messages). My day was chopped up by working on a volunteer committee to restore services to a senior center (that I believe was politically retaliated against by the County because of my and my wife's involvement) & taking one of my Yorkies to a vet to get a fox tail out of her eye (ouchie). I ran a good campaign & have raised awareness on issues a DA impacts/influences and have made proposals on what can be done to improve the DA's office. I have met good people (Paul Schrader for Sheriff, Al Palazzo for Assessor and Ed Montgomery for Judge--all of which got my vote). Good campaign. I would say may the best person win, but I have personally seen far too many opened ballot boxes that should have had seals on them, counting machines jamb, people denied provisional ballots by "trained" volunteers at precincts, refusal to give observers a reasonable position from which to observe ballot handling and counting, unprocessed death certificates/notices of the passing of a voter and jambing Sequoia voter counters to be confident that will happen. The people involved in the ballot gathering and count and the unprocessed death certificates, are appointed by the current County Board of Supervisors who have too much incentive to put people in place that will perpetuate their existing leadership (Hoops and Virjl). We should pray for an accurate count and that those who would taint the system feel constrained.
