Culver Distributes Cash; Gets Good Press
How cynical I am. I immediately jump to the conclusion that if Secretary of State and would be Governor Chet Culver is passing out leftover HAVA money just weeks before the election, it must have something to do with making him look good. And a nice contrast to opponent Jim Nussle, whose guidance of the House budget committee in Washington has dealt in deficits for the entirety of Nussle’s reign.
I wonder if this is the same money once dangled before auditors as possible payment for voting machine printers. Getting the printers would have been a point for Culver. But looking like a frugal administrator is probably worth two or three points.
Chet not stupid, indeed.
