G.O.P. making a mockery of the electoral process in Arizona; Unapolagetic

The NY Times is reporting that Steve May, a Republican party 'operative' in Tempe,AZ has admitted to recruiting and compelling three homeless men to run for political office on the ticket of the Green Party in an effort to siphon votes from the Democratic Party. Mr. May is running for election to the Arizona State Legislature and is following the practices of at least two other Republicans within the state. The reason they are able to manipulate the Green Party ballot is due to the fact that the party does not have the funds to place their own candidates on the ballots thus allowing for write in contenders. To me all of this seems foul and does a disservice to our disintegrating electoral credibility over the last ten years.
