THE WARPED BOSTON HERALD PROPAGANDA RAG HAS OUTDONE ITSELF ONCE AGAIN! KNOWN HOME OF BLOVIATORS!
Included in the article: BOSTON POLICY INSTITUTE, a newly formed THINK TANK. Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance, with a questionable history.
MASS GOP MUDSLINGER LOGAN TRUPIANO hasn't figured out how government works & defines the continued disinformation of MASS GOP seeking relevancy.
SECRETARY OF STATE WILLIAM GALVIN is conducting an investigation of the Boston Election Department in order to address the issues....don't muddy the issue by introducing ranked-choice voting!
— “Boston election ballot mess raises concerns about city’s ability to handle ranked-choice voting,” by Gayla Cawley, Boston Herald: “Boston’s failures in last week’s election have prompted concerns around whether its Election Department, now under investigation by the Secretary of State’s office, would be able to handle a “dramatic” shift to a ranked-choice voting system. Opponents of a Council proposal that seeks to overhaul the city’s election process with a ranked-choice voting system, where voters would rank their favorite candidates, have seized onto last week’s ballot shortages as proof that Boston is not equipped to handle ‘sweeping changes’ to its electoral system.”

Opponents of a Council proposal that seeks to overhaul the city’s election process with a ranked-choice voting system, where voters would rank their favorite candidates, have seized onto last week’s ballot shortages as proof that Boston is not equipped to handle “sweeping changes” to its electoral system.
“Ranked-choice voting is deeply flawed and should be kept far from Boston,” MassGOP spokesman Logan Trupiano said. “Before even considering sweeping changes to our electoral process, Boston must first prove it can manage a basic election.
“Mayor Wu must be held accountable for this complete failure,” Trupiano added. “With the Secretary of State’s office right here in Boston, how could such a blunder happen? Despite 766,200 ballots printed and delivered, polling locations across the city ran out of ballots. It is absolutely unacceptable.”
Secretary of State William Galvin launched an investigation into the Boston Election Department and is considering receivership after a series of Election Day snafus left polling places in multiple neighborhoods short on ballots, reflecting what he described as “incompetence” on the part of city elections officials.
Galvin placed the Boston Election Department under receivership in 2006, after similar ballot shortages hampered that year’s November state election, in which former Gov. Deval Patrick was elected.
