Political Quotes

“I wholeheartedly agree that many of the problems we have in elections today arise from the lack of dedicated, partisan poll workers and watchers looking over each other's shoulders in the election booth. This is where a lot of the problems can be cleaned up. I am most interested and will look with a great deal of interest on any recommendations where we can get the young college Democrats and Republicans to be involved in the elections because what elections need are partisans who are aggressive and informed and will provide a check on each other to make sure the voter hears both sides and makes sure nobody who may vote for one side or another is not given full information. Precisely for that reason, I question whether we ought to be releasing a whole group of Federal employees, who have important responsibilities serving us on a day-to-day basis, from their responsibilities to be nonpartisan poll workers. I want the biggest partisans in the world.”
