Polls can post Negron notes (Foley Seat FL)
Polls can post Negron notes
The state allows signs saying a vote cast for Foley counts for Negron. Not fair, Democrats say.

Division spokeswoman Jenny Nash said Thursday that supervisors who wish to provide such notices may do so, using "any language they want." Some supervisors have asked the division for suggestions on how to do that, which it provided, Nash said.

*****************
.......State Democratic chairwoman Karen Thurman sent a letter to state officials noting that state laws prohibit signs from being posted at polling places.

"I'm doing what the state recommended," said Highlands County Elections Supervisor Joe Campbell, a Democrat. "When you get in these situations, you're going to hear it from both sides. Therefore, I'm going to do what the state is telling me."

Gov. Jeb Bush said the move would help alleviate confusion.
