I recall from my training that a poll worker may not show a voter who to vote for inside the polling place. As a former duly-elected and highly-trained Judge of Elections (just ask Matt Wolfe for an endorsement -- and I'm not a Republican), I can tell you flat out that no poll worker is allowed to do anything like this at all. There are even very strict rules about the limited conditions under which a poll worker can breach the curtain of the voting machine to assist a citizen who needs and asks for help with something -- precisely to avoid any hint of influence. This is a serious breach of ethics and propriety -- not to mention the law -- and should be reported to the City Commissioners' office as well as the Committee of Seventy. Always at your service Judge Krigman (Matt tells me I have that honorific for life, which is why I'm butting into this particular thread) ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
