McDaniel gives county circuit clerks until Friday to deliver election documentation causing much ire

Clerks unhappy with McDaniel subpoena of voting records

According to the subpoena, circuit clerks in the subpoenaed counties will have to deliver “original election documentation” to the Jones County Circuit Clerk’s office by Friday.

“I can’t do it in two days,” longtime Hinds County Circuit Clerk Barbara Dunn said.

Dunn said she has been trying to reach McDaniel and his attorney Mitch Tyner to request they send their people to her office to go through the county’s 118 precinct boxes.

“There is no way we can go through 118 precinct boxes in two days to check to see if they contain absentee ballots,” Dunn said.
