Coatesville Dems: DEVELOPING NEWS: PA Rep. Harry Lewis Republicans challenging new voters. USDOJ on scene. Jim Crow in Coatesville

Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

DEVELOPING NEWS: PA Rep. Harry Lewis Republicans challenging new voters. USDOJ on scene. Jim Crow in Coatesville

Harry "Jim Crow" Lewis Republicans are challenging newly registered voters in Coatesville's 2nd Ward. Getting away with it since Patsy Ray is Judge of Elections.

I heard Richard Legree say, "Patsy is dumb, but she takes orders."

A USDoJ attorney from Washington, DC is at the 2^nd Ward now. CCDC Attorney John Carnes called and said he is on his way there.

"Challenging a voter: A voter's right to vote in the precinct can be challenged by an elections worker, poll watcher or another voter. The challenge must be addressed to the judge of elections, not directly to the voter. There are only two legal reasons to challenge a voter: The voter is not who he or she says he is or the voter does not live in the precinct. A voter's eligibility to register to vote cannot be challenged at the polls. The judge of elections may determine what is a "good faith" challenge.

Challenging all voters is not allowed. Nor is systematically challenging voters of a particular race, ethnicity or other group.How a challenge works:

When the judge determines a challenge is in "good faith," the voter can bring another voter from the precinct to vouch for his or her identity or residency by signing an affidavit. After that, the voter can vote as normal. If the voter is unwilling or unable to find a witness, he or she can cast a provisional ballot.

Provisional ballots: Cast in cases when a voter's right to vote in the precinct cannot be verified, such as when a voter is challenged, does not appear in the poll book, goes to the wrong polling place, or does not have ID when voting for the first time in the precinct. Provisional ballots are sealed and are counted only after the voter's right to vote in the race is verified."
