Those who made the deceptive phone calls and wrongly instructed voters at their voting precincts invalidated all District 22 voters of our right to a fair, impartial election. We were robbed, true enough. However it wasn’t Tim Barnes who committed the robbery. Nor was it the TN Democratic Party Executive Cmte.

Our political system is sworn to protect the sanctity of the ballot. Sadly, there are those in our midst who feel that this is just some ‘feel good’ phrase. They think nothing of manipulating the process to their own ends. When such violations occur, corrections must be made. Sometimes those corrections are painful to the greater population, but they must be made to protect the sanctity and fairness of the ballot process for everyone. Regrettablyly, such is the case here.

The proscribed remedies for election manipulation have been applied. The ship has been righted, the course corrected. The denial of due process has been subverted. The voters’ right of choice has been restored. The electorate will be more apt to question dubious and doubtful assertions now having been exposed to this manner of trickery.

Perhaps that is the one small blessing to emerge from this lamentable affair. An informed electorate is the scoundrel’s bane and greatest opponent.

Now, what I don’t understand is, how does someone who has been a senator for twelve long years intentionally VIOLATE THE LAW this way??
Could Senator Kurita be that ignorant of the law while at the same time making the laws for the rest of us?
Or maybe she’s used to not having to abide by the rules and feel they don’t apply to her?!
She had to use the bathroom? Are you kidding me??
Does she REALLY think we’re ALL that stupid?

Even my children, who go with me to vote, know about the boundary line that the candidates are not allowed to cross!! This is so ridiculous it’s sad!

There are signed affidavits stating that Ms. Kurita crossed the boundary line at the polling place (which is against the law), entered the polling place (another violation), and WORST OF ALL? She and her deputy campaign manager then proceeded to enter through a door which was clearly marked NO CANDIDATES ALLOWED!

To make matters worse, she lied about it.

These are not merely “allegations by Tim Barnes”
as the media would have us believe, but, like it or not, these are the FACTS! (Or evidence you might say.)

Maybe they should dig a little deeper and find out if anything ELSE illegal went on in that room!

Does Ms. Kurita REALLY want to bring up the issue of “stealing an election”?
Wasn’t it Kurita who wanted her “flunkies” and “friends in high places” to use lies and trickery to deceive voters because she had to “win at all costs”?
We’re talking about hundreds (if not more) of votes that would have easily given Mr. Barnes the win had they been properly awarded to him!

So, really, TIM BARNES WON this election to begin with!!

There are more questions than answers in this case. Maybe it should be investigated further.

Or, maybe….”we should just move on now and stop talking about the past” as Ms. Kurita said not too long ago!
