This is how our elections will be disrupted.

No better way to keep people away from the polls.

I'm an "election official" in my home town and I don't have a clue as to what we would do in the event of a bomb scare. I know that last year the State of New Hampshire ruled that elections could not be postponed because of a blizzard. I hate even to mention this because it may incite the crazies but I suspect they already have their sights set on this.

I am gong to pose this question to our Town Moderator (who runs the election) and insist that we have a contingency plan. I suggest that folks here get in touch with their local official and do the same. We may not be able to prevent this shit but we can certainly be prepared to fight back.

If you don't know who to contact, call your Town/City clerk...they will know.

state and county connected disaster management offices who try to prepare for most possible crises. That might be a place to start.
