Judge Rules Linda Mazurski Cannot Hand Out Printed Write-In Lists Within 200 Feet Of Polling Booths

Princess Lisa thought the rules about electioneering didn't apply to her.

Not only does the judge’s ruling not allow poll workers to hand out a list of names of write-in candidates, it also prevents poll workers from verbally providing the names.

“The actions of the Division are in a clear violation of an Alaska administrative regulation,” wrote Pfiffner. “The court hereby grants a temporary restraining order enjoining the Division for allowing election workers and polling place workers to post write-in candidate names, to provide a list of write-in candidate names to voters, or to provide verbally the names of write-in candidates to voters at any place within 200 feet of a polling place for the November 2010 general election.”

By the way, no one tried this before -- getting election officials to hand out lists. Probably because it's illegal.

Princess Lisa thought she was special though.

Here's a funny animal picture that doesn't mean anything at all.
