Missouri judge throws out early voting monitoring case in St Charles

In St Charles County (Missouris third-biggest county) Travis Allen Heins a Republican committeeman tried to change early-voting rules but hit a wall. The local judge Dewayne Johnson made a quick decision today about putting watchers at voting places

The judge didnt even look at the main points of the case; he found problems with how it was written. The request – which wanted to force the county to let people watch early voting – didnt follow state rules for legal papers. Heins wanted a temp restraining order but his document had technical issues

The case got thrown out cause it wasnt written right‚ which means the early-voting spots will keep working like they do now. The whole thing ended before anyone could talk about if watching early voting is good or bad (which was the real question behind all this)
