William Ashley Posted April 15, 2011 Report Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Conservatives may have attempted to breach election policy by seizing ballots and disrupting an electoral process. http://www.guelphmercury.com/news/local/article/517010--conservatives-ask-elections-canada-to-nullify-votes-cast-of-u-of-g-wednesday The proper procedure would have been to contact the returning officer - not grab the ballot box and ballots. "A Special Voting Rules Administrator appointed by the Chief Electoral Officer oversees the administration of the Special Voting Rules." I believe the proper step would be for him to contact: Mrs. Anne Budra 275 Eramosa Road, Guelph ON 1-866-238-7101 (phone) 1-888-278-8323 (fax) I had to post this link because the title was too good not to share: http://drdawgsblawg.ca/2011/04/harper-youth-goons-try-to-seize-ballot-box.shtml Property of Her Majesty118.
