Voting Precinct - Two People in It

I could see this happening in a state with a lot of remote areas like Alaska, but Larimer County (my summer home) has plenty of folks.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- A new Colorado precinct in Larimer County that has only two members is raising privacy concerns.
The precinct has one house and two registered voters. Butch Hartson is a Republican and Ann Grant is a Democrat.
Larimer County clerk Scott Doyle says the precinct was created while new lines were being drawn for congressional and legislative districts following the 2010 Census.

According to the Fort Collins Coloradoan, the two-person precinct could raise privacy concerns, possibly allowing the public to learn how a voter voted.
Doyle says the precinct will probably be merged with another precinct, but it will have to be done by the courts.



Their dog Pippy is an independent.

Isn't it? Silly that it happened, and sillier that time and money has to be wasted taking it to court. Hope all is well at your house.

Because of the recent census there was a lot of redistricting going on, and it backfired on them, probably more problems will show up.
