CADDO REGISTRAR OF VOTERS SHOULD VOLUNTARILY RELEASE INFORMATION ON NOVEMBER CADDO SHERIFF ELECTION

The runoff election for Caddo Sheriff in November last year and the resulting litigation over the one vote margin has raised many questions concerning the Caddo Registrar of Voter's office. The Caddo District court hearing identified many questionable and illegal votes that were counted.

Here is a list of the questions that should be answered voluntarily by Registrar Dale Sibley:

2. Have you instituted/modified any office procedures concerning the cure of incomplete/inaccurate completion of the voter flap on absentee ballots, and if so, what action(s) were taken
