Hey Matthew, ALL of the presidential campaigns, including Hillary Clinton's campaign, helped set this up in March, 2007.

It was done to help ALL shift workers on the strip.

To change the rules at this late date means that shift workers would have to find out their new site, make arrangements for taking more time off work, possibly at a different point in their shift, change child care arrangements, and make transportation arrangements.

Sincere people would have addressed their alleged concerns at a much earlier date so that people could have time to plan -- not a few days before the caucuses and after an endorsement.

But then it is obvious to any reasonable person that we are not talking about sincere people here.

The transparency of this classic “Republican” voter suppression tactic is only eclipsed by the audacity of it.
