CO's Help Americans Vote Act Compliance Director is "stone-cold racist"

[Zero Division]

Add one more reason to believe this may end up the nastiest and most contested presidential election in US history:

Excerpts found at above link, but originally from the Oct. '94 edition of Texas Lawyer (Drew T. Durham is now Colorado's HAVA Compliance Director):

"Buvia's experience with Durham -- who in three years with AG Dan Morales' office has risen to criminal justice division chief and the lawyer in charge of the state's death-penalty litigation -- wasn't an isolated incident, according to five other lawyers who have worked with Durham inside and outside the agency. They say Durham, a former president of the Texas District & County Attorneys Association who came to Morales' office after 12 years as a county attorney in West Texas, has a history of racist and sexist comments."

"Buvia, who resigned from the AG's office March 31 and now has a solo private practice in Austin, said he also recalls Durham bragging on several occasions, saying, "I told Dan Morales to his face -- 'Where I come from Mexicans work for white men, not the other way around.'" Another former assistant said he has also heard Durham make this comment."

Plenty more evidence can also be found from the same article cited in the above link.

Anyone from Colorado have any ideas how such an obviously disgusting excuse for a human being could end up in such a politically sensitive position?
