5. Not just a postcard

After spending many hours of the overworked county clerks' time, large amounts of tax dollars, and sending thousands of postcards telling registered voters they are ineligible he seems to have found 35 non-citizens


Gessler is an idiot. He's #1 on my political MUST GO list for 2014.

And to add to what you already posted, it wasn't just a postcard that was sent to those suspected non-citizens. I'm one of the people who got a letter from him. It was an official letter on his letterhead, double sided with the letter on 1 side, and the form they wanted me to return on the other. There was also a Spanish version.

I am a US citizen and I've been very vocal about my disgust with his tactics. I was quoted in an ABC article, a Huff Post article, a long in-depth Westword article as well as this one:

And no, I did not return the form. And yes, I've been checking my voter registration status every single day since then to make sure he doesn't remove me from the rolls.
