Letters to the Editor for Nov. 7.
The opinion piece denouncing Blake Masters and signed by former classmates, teachers, and Green Fields alumni was right on. These people who come from different walks of life and different political ideology said what needed to be said.
1. The first so called"pillar" of immigration was to be enacted eight to 10 years hence. In other words, long after Trump was out of office. This article detailed incidents wherein the Border Patrol has engaged in pursuits of suspected vehicles transporting undocumented entrants, resulting in deadly crashes. The story basically faulted the BP for doing the pursuits. No faulting of the drivers of the vehicles. The drivers are smuggling and transporting undocumented entrants, both federal felonies. The BP has no idea if any may be on the terrorism watch list or wanted for serious crimes.
Per a recent story in the paper, two women from the small, poor and heavily Hispanic town of San Luis, were recently prosecuted for committing “ballot harvesting.” The two women “conspired” to deliver four signed and sealed ballots illegally to the polls in 2020, from friends in the area. Threatened with up to two years in prison, they were pressured into agreeing to misdemeanor charges with fines and probation. It is the law, in Arizona, despite no evidence of intimidation or falsification.
Why not count the ballots by machine as usual and report the results? Then start to hand count with the understanding that the hand count prevails. There should be plenty of time to do this since no candidate is scheduled to take office for two months.
