UPDATE: Satellite offices to now be opened. As of 10-19-08. Accompanying story here.
Aiken County, South Carolina election officials shut-down satellite offices for absentee ballot voting, restricting early voting to one county office only. This was done per the request of an attorney, from another S.C. county altogether, who does work on behalf of the South Carolina Republican Party.
From the Aiken Standard:
'"If a decision is made, it should come down on the side of making it easy to vote," said Rep. Bill Clyburn. "People are beginning to get suspicious."
Jenkins, Clyburn and others asked that the decision be delayed so that the State Election Commission could render an official decision on the issue. Much of the assembled crowds' ire fell on Kincannon.
"What is your interest here?" one bystander kept asking, forcefully. "You are from Greenville, not Aiken."'
