Reader concerns on unfairness in school early voting
Dear Editor: A May 6 early voting pattern showed lower early totals for the winner and higher for the loser in a school election, fueling distrust of ballots cast at the school. Critics point to past incidents where ballot box keys were kept by school authorities, suggesting neutral sites and secure storage would restore confidence. The law allows the district to request the county election office in San Marcos to run elections in a neutral location and store the early ballot box securely overnight, which officials could use to remove perceptions of wrongdoing.
