My former mother-in-law, who told me nine years ago at my son’s First Communion that she was ashamed her daughter treated me like s**t even after our divorce, was an election judge in the Народный Социалистический Город-Государство Чикаго*. I have to wonder if she ever heard of something like this:

When it comes to election shenanigans, Chicago has been accused of just about everything.
But invisible ink?
Twenty voters at a Far North Side precinct who found their ink pens not working were told by election judges not to worry.
It’s invisible ink, officials said. The scanner will count it.
But their votes weren’t recorded after all.
“Part of me was thinking it does sound stupid enough to be true,’’ said Amy Carlton, who had serious doubts but went ahead and voted anyway.

What a frakkin’ IDIOT! That said, I have to wonder which primary they were voting in. Republican I’ll bet.
