Rule of Law Party Whining Again.
The Maryland Republican Party is charging that partisan politics is behind a decision declaring the GOP's absentee ballot application illegal. News4's Chris Gordon reported that, as a result, just days before the election, some Republicans may be denied their right to vote.
Applications for absentee ballots require that a voter fill out their date of birth. But the Maryland Republican Party sent out applications that did not require a birth date.
As a result, State Attorney General Joseph Curran, who is a Democrat, directed the Board of Elections to declare those absentee ballot applications invalid. Republicans are in an uproar.
