>>Presidential Election. We have early voting. There was a rally at the voting place today by McCain supporters. I wouldn't have known if I hadn't had CNN on in the background while I'm working. The republic party was protesting the cumberland county board of elections because we had voting on a Sunday for the first time ever this time and it was not publicized. The only place they publicized the Sunday voting was on stage at Obama's speech so no one except those who attended or watched the speech online knew about Sunday voting. I looked online for voting places for early voting (and instructions) and saw the schedule. They added the sunday (only one sunday and it was last sunday) on the Monday following. Interesting. Trying to cover their butts obviously. I think it wasn't done specifically for Dems but rather to keep the turnout lower than it would be otherwise. Lazy folks. They could state they had Sunday voting and there was a low turnout so no reason to ever have it again. (Just my opinion) Problem was that it was busy because it was announced on stage right before Obama's speech here.

No

No, but it was there on the Monday following Sunday.

>Did the election commission publicize anything about the early voting schedule anywhere other than on their website?

If they did, I missed it. I read the paper everyday and I watch the local news. They could have though. If they did, they did a terrible job publicizing it. Of course, there is no telling that had McCain or Palin been here instead of Obama that it wouldn't have been announced then. Most likely so. I don't see it as anything to do with either party. I think it is the sorry state of our board of elections.
