Bev Harris Not Absolved
Advertisements [?]
Let me make it clear, I support the work she's doing. But I also think constructive criticism is how people IMPROVE on their efforts. When these kinds of articles are the response, I think it's important to make sure you aren't interrupting someone's retirement reception.

One more for LePore

The woman who dealt with more than 50 lawsuits as chief of the county’s election department has to handle at least one more before she leaves office on Jan. 3.

Failing to comply
Black Box Voting, a Washington-based nonprofit elections watchdog group, filed suit against LePore this week, accusing her of failing to comply with a request for documents related to the Nov. 2, 2004 election.

LePore, however, said she was in touch with Bev Harris, executive director of Black Box Voting, just before Thanksgiving. “I told her we were estimating the cost of providing the documents. Once we got their check, I said we would start making the copies,” she told the Boca Raton News on Wednesday. The price tag could run from $3,000 to $5,000.

But the organization didn’t wait. It filed suit in Palm Beach County Circuit Court on Tuesday.

Leaders of the organization actually pursued LePore to Orlando, where she is attending a conference for election supervisors. They delivered the lawsuit Tuesday night, interrupting a reception where LePore was being honored as she prepares to leave office.

Like I said, I support BBV and think Bev has done amazing things. I just think they need to be careful not to get the reputation for being another unprofessional fanatic. Making noise to further the cause is a good thing. Making noise just to make noise is not.

Flame me if you must.
