Stiff yer illegal hires

It's the Republican way! I'd call it stupid, 'cept they'll get away with it. Which means it's called Smart Strategorizing!


Dozens of Prince George's County college, high school and even junior high school students say they got an unwelcome civics lesson when they were promised -- but never received -- payments of up to $125 to work the polls for Gov.-elect Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.

Under state election laws, it is illegal for candidates to pay so-called "walking-around money" to Election Day workers distributing materials on their behalf.

The students, numbering between 40 and 50, are the second group to surface with allegations of apparently illegal activities on behalf of
Ehrlich's successful campaign.

Nearly 200 homeless people recruited from a Washington, D.C., shelter said they also were recruited and worked the polls in Prince George's County for Ehrlich.


Don't you EVER dare leave some stupid-ass comment about "democrats and homeless people."
