The AP reports that the South Carolina Democrat party is short on cash for throwing the presidential primary just months away. While that is all pretty interesing and would be great fodder for some good ol' fashioned schadenfreude, it's a passage at the end of the article that really stands out.
Other county officials are reluctant to open all 2,000 polling sites, saying they want to combine precincts where there are relatively few Democrats if such a plan passes legal muster. However, in 2000, Democrats sued Republicans to open all primary polling sites.So, the Democrats pitched a hissy fit when Republicans only wanted to open polls in heavily Republican areas, and now they want to do the same. Regardless of whether or not you believe that all polls should be open during the primary (I do) the irony is delicious.
