Vote Early and Vote Never

There's an old saying in Lake County: If you can't stop them from voting for the other side then stop them from voting.

HaHa, County Clerk Robin O'Connor hasn't been a MAGA Republican for even 8 months and she is already suppressing the vote in Lake County:

Early voting started late in Lake County Thursday because technology issues got in the way of voting machines operating properly.
Lake County’s early voting gets off to late start; ‘Sorry, we’re not ready yet’

Voters were turned away from the early voting booths in Waukegan on Thursday because of a "software issue". Of course in situations such as these, computers are like dogs. They can't talk back when you say they ate the homework.

Is this the first phase of a Republican strategy to stop the vote in Lake County? A Lake County GOP spokesman dismissed the idea and was quick to defend Robin O'Connor: "We refuse to attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence."
