Arkansas Ballots Have A ‘Typo’ With The Word ‘Liar’ In Hillary’s Name

http://mindy-fischer-writer.com/2016/11/arkansas-ballots-typo-word-liar-hillarys-name-video/

Hillary voters in Arkansas have just uncovered a new one.

In Lonoke County, Arkansas, voters noticed that when they went to vote for Hillary Clinton, their ballots had a typo. Her name was printed with an extra “i,” which makes the word “liar” appear in the middle of her name….Hilliary.

When an anonymous voter came forward upset about the stunt…or “typo” as they’re calling it…she was blown off by election officials. So she went to the press.

1. Trump's name has "rump" in it. Everyone knows it is "Drumpf"

Wait, that does too. Kind of hard to believe they would misspell the name of their former First Lady.

3. I've got a feeling it was no accident, rather a half-bright attempt at mischief.

Adding insult to injury, the further comment was “They were just kind of like we know, we don’t think many people will vote for her so we can’t fix it.”

that one party will be dominating the political arena over the next 20 years. Slowly and surely there is a blue wave that is moving across the nation which will drown you.

get 2 out of 3 votes cast. It's something like 61 to 37.

11. The people of Arkansas should be ashamed.

THIS from a state that had Senator William Fulbright, Senator Dale Bumpers, Senator David Pryor and yes, Bill Clinton as Governor for several terms. NOBODY could argue that any of these men are not highly accomplished and highly intelligent human beings.

Now. . . Compare the above individuals to:
Senator Tom Cotton
Governor Asa Hutchinson
Secretary of State Leslie Rutledge
Senator John Boozman

There is NO way to argue that THESE four individuals are ALL batshit crazy AND/OR stupid
Cotton? Ivy League education but how could anybody with a brain say the stupid fucking things he does? AND he's crazy.
Hutchinson? An IDIOT and he's CRAZY too
Leslie Rutledge? A loathsome, vindictive wing nut who had a campaign ad for herself: "Born Again Christian, gun-loving, Obama Hating. . . . ." Seriously. this was a TV ad. Need I say more?
John Boozman? Mostly STUPID, greedy and lazy.

WTF is wrong with Arkansas?

And yes--Arkansas is one of the most truly stunningly beautiful states that remains really undiscovered.

As long as its residents remain hostile to the outside world, I can't see many inroads being made. And yes, I CAN criticize the state; I have roots there. Glad I don' live there!

10. I expect worse from that fool of a secretary of state, Leslie Rutledge.

I gleefully watched her show the nation what a mean, ignorant and deeply stupid person she is. What's a riot is that she just doesn't have ANY clue what a fool she is.
