Illinois Gubernatorial Candidate's Name Misspelled as 'Whitey' on Ballot
An Illinois gubernatorial candidate's name reportedly is misspelled as "Whitey" on the touch-screen voting machines in a number of wards with a majority of black voters.
The Chicago Sun-Times reported that Rich Whitney, the Green Party candidate, is contemplating legal action after election officials said there's nothing they can do about the misspelling before Election Day.
"Whitey" turned up in 23 wards. The name shows up correctly on the initial screen but not on the screen that allows voters to review their choices.
Lol. What difference does it make? Everyone knows that blacks can't be racist.... It's "cultural pride" in the African American community. Surely no voter is going to be swayed because of someone being called a "name". Lol again.
