The Georgia electon board
was counting ballots. A Repub-
lican ticket showed up. Not find
ing anything wrong with it, the
board put it aside as suspicious
only. After several hours a sec-
ond Republican ballot showed
up. This was going too far. The
judge said: “The son-of-a-gun
voted twice. Throw ’em both
out.”
