It depends on whether the court rules there was equal protection, that Democrats were afforded the same treatment the Republicans got. However, it being a Republican-dominated county, it's doubt that the supervisor would have left Democrats alone, with a laptop, in the County databank and election technology officer's facility. The supervisor has testified she made no effort to get the Democrats voter IDs numbers recorded so they could receive ballots.

The plaintiff, Mr. Jacobs, claims he has a friendship with a couple--one a GOP, one a DEM--where the Republican wife got the absentee ballot mailed, whereas the Democrat husband had to go get his.

On the surface, it seems an unfair tilt advantage to the GOPside and a possible equal protection violation.
