Certain customers are always providing
opportunities for additional sales. Hamilton County, TN is one such
customer. No reflection on Cathi Smothers.
In the March 2000 election a ballot box was
delivered to a volunteer fire department on Friday. Over the weekend the
firehouse was used for a party. Needing a trash container, a volunteer
fireman cut the top lock off the box and used it for a trash
bin.
In the recent August 3rd Primary, a ballot box
was delivered to a precinct that was locked. The ballot box was left
outside a Goodwill store next to the precinct. Not knowing what it was the
workers at the Goodwill store tried to sell the box over the weekend.
After no buyers they had the box along with other scrap items thrown into the
crusher on Monday morning. One of the ladies that worked at the store
recognized the box while voting and confessed to the disappearance of the
missing ballot box.
At this rate, Hamilton will replace all their
ballot boxes over the next several years. All replacements are sold at
full market value.
