Chaos in Horry County Primary Elections 2008

Chaos would be an understatement in describing the handling of the 2008 Republican Primary Elections in Horry County, South Carolina this past Saturday evening. Murphy's Law was in full effect for the Horry County Elections Commission as things that could go wrong, did go wrong.

From what I am gathering, HawkKI4HEE is trying to give some constructive criticism, but agrees with your info, not your methods. I believe the public needs to know alot about what goes on behind closed doors in this county, as I have been behind them for years, but above board. Keep up the good work, both of you. The more correct information the public has, the easier it is to make a well informed decision. Remember, good people make bad decisions with bad info.

These guys are local heroes. Consider what they risk by putting themselves out there and risking their career,employment,harrasement etc.Councilwoman Liz Gilland treated them in an unprofessional manner. I am often embarrased by local council. And even more embarrased that we look po-dunk by being so unprepared for the vote. Horry County should be investigated for this and removed from the responsibility of vote preperation.

Oops the machines are down. what now? of course.. not enough paper ballots OR a proper system to count them! why would they want to do that? simple. Mark Bennet.. like Ron Paul.. in a completely fair election.. WIN in a Landslide. the stranglehold of the elite will start to crumble. America Will Be Restored By Brave Souls like theese. I encourage everyone with likeminded views to run for offices at every level. and to ALWAYS vote on paper ballot with certified affidavid reciept. absentee if necc

Not having enough ballots seems like a pretty big problem. The New Hampshire recount is pretty interesting too. The boxes weren't sealed, the tape was cut open, and the chain of possession is pretty questionable. The ballots were not in a vault and sat unguarded during MLK weekend.

I guess your vote counts in SC but only if you don't live in Horry County.

I am also going to block your comments from this page as I have gave you the opportunity to share your thoughts with the world about this video and Make A Difference In Horry County.

Although, I completely disagree with you, your opinions are appreciated.

I will admit, we are NOT professionals. Professionals get paid!

Sorry sir, but you are the minority as nobody seems to think the same as you on this one.

Thanks for the tips, however, I again have no intentions of being paid to give information to the public, period.

A childish retort, but typical considering the source. Look pal,just take a journalism 101 course SOON. I know you're above any advice, especially from a professional, but I'll tell you this, for what you are trying to do here & on your website, you need credibility. Without it your dead. But with it, the next time the county may actually take you serious instead of consider you a simple pest.
