California town forced to hold open election, Clerk won't count votes
in the oddest election news of the day, the Clerk for the city of Vernon California announced he won't count the votes cast this week in an election which could change the face of the town considerably.
The 5 square mile city is the ultimate in "company towns", with the housing owned by the city and a totally industrial commercial base. In over 100 years, the town has had 4 mayors.
The city website doesn't mention any of this, though it does have a nice little history section.
Sounds like a place a lot of politicians would love to settle.
