Re: the Oct. 30 article "Chance of fraud heightened by ballot, envelope design."
Pima County's elections procedures are some of the best in the nation. I have spent many hours personally observing them in detail for years and have nothing but praise for how things are handled both in the Recorder's Office and the City and County Elections Departments. There are some state laws passed by the Republicans in the Legislature that could well be changed for the better, however.
Eppiheimer should examine the facts and actually come to observe the very careful procedures used by both the City and the County. If his purpose is to suppress the Republican vote, by raising paranoia at the time people are voting, he has probably discouraged at least one person from his party from voting, which is his privilege. He and other Republicans also recently signed a letter to the Board of Supervisors that shows his ignorance of both the system and the state laws. Get the facts before you criticize Mr. Eppiheimer.
