AHHHH.

Do you think Sarah Palin is qualified to serve as VP of the US?

It's at 52% yes, 47% no. Apparently there's an email campaign to tilt the poll towards yes. So, you know, take a sec and go vote.

Actually there's no record of anyone ever being charged for those.

At the same time - during Palin's tenure - Wasilla had 49 reported cases of sexual assault.

Even if there is no record, the fact that the mayor didn't know about the potential for this to happen and did nothing to try to stop it from happening is anti-woman, in my opinion.

And I'm not sure why searching the fiscal records for 2000, 2001 & 2002 is relevant if the law was overturned in 2000.

*shrug* Hard to argue with opinions.

OTOH, almost every state and municipality in the US has old laws that are simply not enforced and thus aren't discussed.

From the other POV, Illinois did overturn similar law, but there are cases of women charged anyway, by smaller towns who were trying to economize.

The records for 2001/2 were searched presumably to see if there were outstanding bills - i.e. the crime in 2000, investigation throughout the year, but the accounting not processed till a year later.
