Why Is This Woman Handing Out Absentee Ballots?
by Capitol Confidential
The folks at  Election Journal caught up with Isabel Melendez handing out absentee ballots in Lawrence, Massachusetts. She also helpfully explains how she can mark the ballot for the voter:


If one were trying to manufacturing fraudulent votes, absentee ballots would be a great place to start. In many cases stacks of these have been turned in at one time, making it impossible to verify that an individual voter submitted each ballot.
Check for more updates throughout the day.
UPDATE: This Boston Globe story reports that Isabel Melendez is a community activist in Lawrence. She ran for mayor of the city in 2001, losing out by just over 900 votes.

“My candidate is Martha…so I can mark it”

I heard about this idiot as it was breaking, and, frankly, its not surprising that this has come from Lawrence.

The only thing I can think of was her intention to interleave them with genuine absentee voting, since absentee ballots needed to be postmarked by last Friday, IIRC.
