Philly Polling Locations, Senate Bill 999, Marian Tasco and PAVOTNGNIGHTMARE.COM
We would like to call your attention to www.pavotingnightmare.com and you can see for yourself the polling place problem in Philadelphia. Nevertheless, Marian Tasco who has commented on this blog before and will be speaking this evening at the Committee of Seventy's "If These Wards Could Talk" seems to think that Senate Bill 999 will "repress" and "Deny" voters.
We guess she doesn't think that those Republicans voting in the 1ST WARD DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS are disenfranchised or that those voting at 24th and Ellsworth in the Vacant Office with "DANGER KEEP OUT" plastered on the front door with broken windows aligning the second floor are repressed. How about, it is a safe idea to move a polling place like this. We can look at Tasco's 50th Ward where they vote in mostly public buildings this would be akin to moving another polling place into Finley Rec or Leeds School; where there are already multiple polling places. What is ironic about some of this is that Bok sits directly across the street and IN THE SAME DIVISION as the first Ward Democratic Headquarters.
Some complain about moving the polling place across the street or a block away into a builing; however, that may easier to walk then say up 14 steps into an inaccessible residence.
Any comments on this?
