Marked Sample Ballots Causing Confusion in NC Cities

Frank Eaton, a documentary filmmaker and campaign worker for candidate for Lt. Governor, Dan Besse, posted a picture of an actual sample ballot that is being handed out in Forsyth County, North Carolina. The ballot is not marked sample anywhere on its face. It is actually titled, "official ballot" up top.



Frank says in his post that people were actually trying to hand in the ballots thinking they were real.
The group handing them out is a mystery. From Frank:

And here's a piece of paid literature being distributed at early polling places around Winston-Salem by paid people for a brand new PAC called the Winston-Salem Black Political Action Committee.......
Where did this formerly blank ballot come from? Who is the Winston-Salem Black PAC? Why didn't they file the organizational reports that were due this week?

Why doesn't Rob Coffman, head of Forsyth County Elections, find anything wrong with any of this?
If you'd like to give him a call, here's his number: (336) 703-2801.
or drop him an email: [email protected]
