| [DVN] - 'Daily Voting News' for June 09, 2009 - Registrar's Texas Two Step (or double dipping) |
 |
This from Harris County, Texas -- the third largest county in the US: "Johnson is the associate voter registrar at the Harris County Tax Assessor Collectors office, but according to state documents, that's just his day job. Johnson is also a paid director of a small company that provides voter data to Republican candidates for office. That company, Campaign Data Systems, billed at least $140,000 in 2008."
