ANDERSON MY VICE CHAIR AS A
PERSONAL STORY ABOUT. THE
GREATEST HOLIDAY PARTY OF ALL
TIME EX IF YOU COULD HAVE SEEN
ANTIQUE ROAD SHOW. BUT YOU
BASICALLY IT LOOKS LIKE.
A RECALLS YET PRETTY TO HELP US
PRETTY DARN CLOSE.
.
WE HAVE.
YEAH WE ONE BILL ON FILE HERE
TODAY.
SENATOR LEAHY WAS COMING TO.
I WILL TAKE A BRIEF PAUSE
THANKS AND I APOLOGIZE. MOON.
THAT'S ONE THING.
ALRIGHT SEEING AS THE COURT HAS
BEEN ESTABLISHED.
CENTER MAGUIRE'S PRESIDENT.
MCGUIRE WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT SB
SEVEN FIFTY NINE. WOULD THINK
IT'S A MUCH AT MISTER CHAIR
THRESHER I DO APOLOGIZE FOR
KEEPING YOU WAITING IT'S GOOD TO
SEE YOU HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF
YOU.
I'M. GOING TO SAY FIRST OF ALL
THINK.
THE CHAIR IN HIS INCREDIBLY
CAPABLE STAFF AT FOR ALL THE
WORK AND THEY PUT IN. AYE IN THE
GUIDES THEY GIVEN ON THIS BILL
IS JOSE THANK YOU SO MUCH.
AB. MEMBERS I THINK THAT WE CAN
ALL AGREE STRONG DEMOCRACY
DEPENDS ON A VOTERS BELIEVE THAT
THERE BALLOT COUNTS.
HOWEVER IN CALIFORNIA ACCORDING
TO SECRETARY STATES OFFICE
OR TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND
RESIDENTS.
HAD THEIR WORLD ROCKED WHEN
THEY'RE BALLOT WAS THROWN AWAY
IN NOT COUNTED IN THE NOVEMBER
GENERAL ELECTION CYCLE.
THEY'RE EVEN MORE IN THE PRIMARY
WE BELIEVE THAT WE DON'T HAVE
THAT DATA.
YOU HEARD ME RIGHT.
ITALY TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VOTES
ARE THROWN OUT WITH ANY
NOTIFICATION TO THE INDIVIDUAL
VOTER.
THERE VOTE SIMPLY DIDN'T COUNT.
IN HIS RECENT HEADLINES HAVE
SHOWN EVEN ONE VOTE CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE.
THE VIRGINIA HOUSE IS A PRIME
EXAMPLE.
THESE TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND MALE
BALLOTS WERE THROWN OUT BECAUSE
OF A MISMATCH IN SIGNATURE. BUT
A SIGNATURE ON THE BALLOT DID
NOT MATCH WHAT WAS IN THEIR
FILE.
WHILE MISMATCHES SIGNATURES CAN
OCCUR FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS
THERE IS NO LAW HERE IN THE
GOLDEN STATE THAT MANDATES LOCAL
ELECTION OFFICIALS NOTIFIED
VOTERS THAT THEIR BALLOT WILL BE
TOSSED OR. PROVIDE THEM WITH AN
OPPORTUNITY TO CORRECT THE
MISTAKE.
THERE ARE MANY REASONS THAT A
BALLOT MAY HAVE A MISMATCH
SIGNATURE FEW EXAMPLES COULD BE
A DISABILITY.
INCONSISTENT SIGNATURES BETWEEN
WHAT THEY SIGNED ON THE BALLOT
PURSES R. BOW CARD.
A DIFFERENT MEMBER OF THE
HOUSEHOLD SUCH AS A SPOUSE OR
CARETAKER MAY SIGN ON THEIR
BEHALF.
OR THE PERSON VOTER SUCH AS
SOMEONE WHO'S.
SECOND LANGUAGE IS ENGLISH MAY
BE UNAWARE THAT THEY HAVE TO
SIGN THEIR BALLOT THE SAME WAY
AS IT IS ON THE FILE. AND THEN
THEY SIGN IN CHARACTERS OF THE
NON ENGLISH ALPHABET.
CURRENTLY CALIFORNIA ALLOWS
EIGHT DAYS TO CORRECT THE BALLOT
WITHOUT A SIGNATURE. BUT DESPITE
ALL THE VARIABLES THAT GO INTO
MATCHES SIGNATURE THERE IS NO
GUARANTEE THAT THE COUNTY GIVES
A VOTER AND OPPORTUNITY TO
CORRECT A MISMATCH IN SIGNATURE.
NOW THIS IS NOT A. PROBLEM THAT
ONLY EXISTS HERE IN CALIFORNIA
IN TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN ONE
FLORIDA FACE A SIMILAR PROBLEM.
WITH A LAW THAT AL ALLOWED
BALLOTS WITHOUT IMAGINE SINGERS
YOU TO BE THROWN OUT A U. S.
DISTRICT COURT JUDGE OVERTURNED
IT. CALLING SITUATION OBSCENE.
AS THE USE OF VOTE BY I'M AND
MAIL BALLOTS INCREASE HERE IN
CALIFORNIA WE CANNOT IGNORE THIS
ISSUE ANY LONGER.
A TWO DAY OVER HALF OF ALL
CALIFORNIANS VOTE BY MAIL AND IN
MANY COUNTIES THAT PERSON IS
ACTUALLY LARGER.
CURRENTLY SOME SMALLER COUNTIES
SUCH AS SIERRA AND PLUMAS
CONDUCT THEIR ENTIRE ELECTION
ALL VIA MAIL.
IN THOSE NUMBERS COULD INCREASE
FURTHER WITH THE VOTERS CHOICE
ACT WHICH WAS PASSED IN TWO
THOUSAND SIXTEEN WHICH ALLOW ALL
COUNTIES CONDUCT ELECTIONS BY
MAIL BY TWENTY TWENTY.
IT'S UP TO US
REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS TO
KEEP DEMOCRAT DEMOCRACY STRONG
IN PASSED SENATE BILL SEVEN
FIFTY NINE. AGAIN I WANT TO SAY
THANK YOU TO THE CHAIR A IN HIS
STAFF FOR WORKING WITH
OUR-OFFICE ON THIS LEGISLATION
AND
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
STAKEHOLDERS TO IMPROVE THE
BILL'S CLARITY. ON NOTIFICATION
TIMING AND PROCEDURES NOW SO I
TAKE A MOMENT SAY THANK YOU TO
OUR SECRETARY STATE MISTER
PADILLA. R. HE IN HIS VERY
CAPABLE STAFF HAVE BEEN
WONDERFUL PARTNERS IN THIS
WEDNESDAY HOW GRATEFUL WE ARE
THAT FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK
WITH YOU AGAIN. AND MISTER CHAIR
AT THE EIGHT YEAR LEADERSHIP WE
HAVE AYE TIFFANY MOCK HE'S CHIEF
OF LEGISLATIVE AFFAIRS FOR THE
OFFICE THE SECTOR STATE TO
BETTER PROVIDE SOME TESTIMONY AS
WELL. AND WOULD RESPECTFULLY ASK
FOR AND I DON'T APPROPRIATE TIME
FIGURE THANK YOU.
A LEADING WITNESS.
KAREN MEMBERS BY NAME IS TIFFANY
MOCKING I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF
SECRETARY STATE OUT EXPEDIA I
WANNA THANK THE AUTHOR HIS
STAFF.
THE KAREN HIS STAFF FOR WORKING
WITH MY OFFICE ON THIS
LEGISLATION WE WILL CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH STAKEHOLDERS TO
IMPROVE THE BILL'S CLARITY ON
NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES.
OUR OFFICE IS PLEASE TO SPONSOR
SB SEVEN. FIVE NINE WHICH WILL
GIVE A VOTER WHO SIGNATURE ON A
VOTE BY MAIL ENVELOPE.
THAT DOES NOT MATCH THE VOTER
SIGNATURE ON FILE TO HAVE THEIR
BALLOT COUNTED IF THAT IS HIS OR
HER. INTENT AND SHE COMMUNICATES
WITH THE OFFICE THAT AFTERWARDS.
AMONG MANY FUNCTIONS IN GOALS
THE SECRETARY STATES OFFICE AIMS
TO PROVIDE INCREASING VOTER
REGISTRATION ON PARTICIPATION.
WHILE ENSURING THAT THIS CAN BE
DONE IN A PRACTICAL MANNER
CURRENT LAW REQUIRES ALL
ELECTIONS TO BE CERTIFIED WITHIN
TWENTY EIGHT DAYS FOR A
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR. AND
THE SIZE OF OUR STATE CREATES
DIFFERENT OBSTACLES FOR EACH
COUNTY WITH THE INCREASING VOTE
BY MAIL BALLOTS THERE SOME
BALLOTS THAT MAY NOT BE
PROCESSED.
A NAVY PROCESS LATE.
IN THE PROCESS OF COUNTING
BALLOTS AND CONSEQUENTLY
TIMELINES ARE STILL BEING
DISCUSSED.
THE CURRENT LANGUAGE IN THE BILL
PROVIDES A BALANCE OF CREATING
PROCESS THAT. NOTICE AND THE
CHANCE SECURE MISMATCH. ANNEKE
FOR CAN'T SECURE A MISMATCH
SIGNATURE BUT ALSO THE
FLEXIBILITY THAT REGISTRARS
AROUND THE STATE HAVE EXPRESSED.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND
I URGE HER AYE VOTE.
THANK YOU ASTHMA.
AND CONGRATS ON YOUR NEW A NEW
SPOT SECRETARY THANK YOU CARE.
A. ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN
SUPPORT.
IT AFTERNOON. MY NAME'S DOOR
ROSE I'M DEPUTY DIRECTOR WITH
THE LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF
CALIFORNIA AS OF A COUPLE DAYS
AGO.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR GIVING
ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO. TESTIFY
IN SUPPORT OF SB SEVEN FIFTY
NINE.
THE LEAD STANDS ON THE PRINCIPLE
THAT A FUNDAMENTAL VOTING RIGHTS
AND THE.
THE RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR BALLOTS
COUNTED.
IS A NOT A RIGHT THAT SHOULD BE
ABROGATED WITH.
.
UNREASONABLE AND UNNECESSARY
RESTRAINTS.
AND.
THE A.
REJECTING VOTE BY MAIL BALLOTS
DUE TO A PERCEPTION OF A
MISMATCH SIGNATURE.
WITHOUT GIVING VOTERS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO CURE THE PROBLEM
USING A VERIFICATION. IS EXACTLY
THIS SORT OF.
.
UNNECESSARY RESTRAINTS THAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BUT SP SEVEN
FIFTY NINE REALLY WORKS TO
RESOLVE THAT PROBLEM.
WE ALL KNOW AT A AS WAS STATED
PREVIOUSLY THAT SIGNATURES
CHANGE OVER TIME RAPED THEY
CHANGE BECAUSE OF ILL HEALTH.
THEY CHANGE BECAUSE OF
DISABILITY THAT CHANGED BECAUSE
OF AGE. BECAUSE OF HASTE WHEN
YOU WRITE YOUR SIGNATURE THEY
CHANGE BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE
STYLE THAT YOU WRITE WITH JUST
CHANGES.
VOTERS SHOULD NOT BE A. YA.
DISADVANTAGED BY FAILING HEALTH
FLOOR BY YEAH INADVERTENT
SCRIBBLE.
.
THE THIS IS NOT AN INSIGNIFICANT
PROBLEM ASIAN AMERICANS
ADVANCING JUSTICE LA DID A STUDY
RECENTLY AFTER THE NOVEMBER
TWENTY.
STEEN ELECTION.
OF FOR COUNTIES
AND IN THAT STUDY WHAT THEY
FOUND THAT BOOK WAS A VOTE BY
MAIL BALLOTS.
THAT WERE BEING REJECTED THE.
FORTY FOUR PERCENT OF THEM WERE
BEING REJECTED ON THE BASIS OF A
SIGNATURE MISMATCH.
AND WHEN YOU LOOKED AT ASIAN
AMERICAN. VOTE BY MAIL BALLOTS
A FIFTY ONE PERCENT OF THEM WERE
BEING REJECTED ON THE BASIS OF A
SIGNATURE. MISMATCH SO WHAT YOU
HAVE HERE IS A SITUATION THAT.
REALLY HURTS CALIFORNIANS IT'S
A PROBLEM FOR CALIFORNIANS
OVERALL
BUT IT ALSO DISPROPORTIONATELY I
DISENFRANCHISES. A POPULATION
THAT IS ALREADY OF UNDER
REPRESENTED IN OUR ELECTORATE.
SO I.
THE.
THE PROBLEM SAYS OF THE NUMBER.
THE NUMBER OF CALIFORNIA VOTERS
WHO CHOOSE TO VOTE BY MAIL IS ON
AN UPWARD SWING WE ALL KNOW THAT
IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS THAT THE
VOTE OF THE VOTERS CHOICE ACT
WAS PASSED AND IN FACT THE
LEGISLATURE HAS MADE IT.
A PRIORITY TO INCREASE VOTE BY
MAIL VOTING BECAUSE I THINK IT'S
GOING TO AND WE THINK IT'S GOING
TO INCREASE CONVENIENCE FOR
VOTERS IT'S GOING TO.
INCREASE.
VOTER PARTICIPATION IT'S GONNA
OF.
A. ENGAGE VOTERS IN A WAY THAT
THEY HAVEN'T BEEN AND ENGAGE OF
BEFORE AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL.
A INCREASE PARTICIPATION AND
AND.
VOTING AMONG UNDER A.
GROUPS IT'S STRUCTURED THAT WAY
RIGHT.
SO.
.
REALLY WHAT THE VOTERS CHOICE
ACT IS DOING IS TRYING TO EXPAND
REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY IN
CALIFORNIA.
GIVEN THAT IT'S VITALLY
IMPORTANT THAT WE.
ENACT SAFEGUARDS TO GUARANTEED
THAT WHEN WE SEE AN UPTICK IN
VOTING WHEN WE SEE AN UPTICK IN
PARTICIPATION WE DON'T YOU KNOW
AT THE SAME TIME.
HAVE A SITUATION WHERE THE
BALLOT THAT THE MORE BALLOTS ARE
BEING VOTED AND MORE BALLOTS ARE
BEING REJECTED TO PROBLEMS LIKE
SIGNATURE. MISMATCH SO.
CALIFORNIA IN THE SPIRIT OF
CALIFORNIA'S MOVEMENT TOWARD
ERADICATING IMPEDIMENTS TO
VOTING IN GENERAL IMPEDIMENTS TO
COUNTING BALLOTS I URGE OUR
COMMITTEE MEMBERS TO VOTE FOR. A
SP IS SEVEN FIFTY NINE AND
CONTINUE.
GETTING RID OF THOSE
IMPEDIMENTS THAT ARE UNNECESSARY
FROM.
THANK YOU VERY MANY
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW
LEADERSHIP ISOLA.
BUT YOU MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS
MITCH SNIDER WITH CALIFORNIA
LABOR FEDERATION ALSO IN SUPPORT
OF THIS REFORM THAT. BERKELEY
SEEMS PRETTY HARD TO ARGUE
AGAINST IT SEEMS LIKE KIND OF A
NO BRAINER THAT BEFORE WE. THAT
AYE SOMEONE'S VOTE FOR WHAT
ESSENTIALLY AMOUNTS TO POOR
PENMANSHIP AT A MINIMUM WE
SHOULD LET THEM KNOW THAT IT'S
ABOUT TO HAPPEN AND.
EVEN THE CHANCE AWAY AND I JUST
WANT TO ADD THE HAVING MONITORED
SIGNATURE VERIFICATION OP
PROCESSES BEFORE.
FIX MISTAKES ARE MADE AND ARE
AT BOTH ON THE PART OF PEOPLE
SIGNING THEIR NAMES IN THOSE
VERIFYING THE SIGNATURE
SOMETIMES DOES THAT. THE DID THE
SIGNATURE VERIFICATION GIVEN
VERY LITTLE TRAINING.
AND SITAR MEMBER CONTESTING A
FEW AND GETTING IN SOME PRETTY
HEATED ARGUMENTS WITH THE PERSON
THEY'RE WATCHING THE PROCESS
OVER WHETHER OR NOT A SIGNATURE
MATCHED. AND DOWN YOU KNOW IT'S
AT BEST A VERY IMPERFECT PROCESS
AND REALLY ALL THIS BILL DOES
IS.
ALLOW ANOTHER LAYER OF REVIEW ON
THAT GIVE VOTERS ANOTHER CHANCE
TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS BEFORE
WE.
TAKE AWAY WAS ARGUABLY THE MOST
FUNDAMENTAL AND IMPORTANT RIGHT
THAT VOTERS HAVE SO WE ARE JUST
MORE.
THANK YOU.
YEAH. I THINK YOU.
EVELYN ABU HASSEN WITH
DISABILITY RIGHTS CALIFORNIA.
I'M NOT GONNA REPEAL THE
COMMENTS WERE JUST MADE JUST
SPECIFICALLY FOR PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITIES THIS IS A.
BILL
OFTENTIMES BECAUSE OF ILLNESS OR
BECAUSE OF A DISABILITY YOUR
SIGNATURE DOES CHANGE OVER TIME.
THIS BILL WILL ENSURE THAT
PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES VOTES
ARE COUNTED AS WE MOVE FORWARD
AND IN VARIOUS ELECTIONS SO WE
DO STRONGLY SUPPORT THE BILL.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANK YOU.
ANY OTHER WITNESSES IN SUPPORT.
THING NINE ANY WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION.
MY INCOME ACLU OF CALIFORNIA WE
DON'T YET HAVE A POSITION ON THE
BILL BUT WERE SUPPORTIVE OF THE
CONCEPT AND WE ARE CONTINUING
OUR DISCUSSION WITH THE AUTHORS
OFFICE BINKY. GOOD THANK YOU.
SEEING NO WITNESSES IN
OPPOSITION MEMBERS ANY COMMENTS.
OKAY.
RECOGNIZING MOTION FROM GO
SENATOR HERTZBERG.
A VICE CHAIR INCUMBENT.
SO.
YES THIS BILL IS BEING.
BOEING FOR.
I LIKE THE BILL IN CONCEPT I
JUST NEED TO KNOW MORE DETAILS.
SO.
ONCE A BALLOTS FLAG.
THEN. HE WALKED ME THROUGH
QUICKLY WHAT WHAT HAPPENS.
IN IN LET ME JUST SAY BEFORE
BEFORE YOU GET STARTED.
I THINK THERE'S TWO REASONS
FOR PEOPLE TO BE DISENFRANCHISES
CERTAINLY ONE AS THEIR VOTES NOT
BEING COUNTED.
BUT TO.
THAT'S I THINK THERE'S VOTER
FRAUD. BET YOU KNOW MY HOSTING
COUNTED IT AS AMERICA'S
ACCOUNTING THINKS IT SHOULD BE
COUNT.
SO TRYING TO STRIKE THAT BALANCE
IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
I'M NOT OPPOSED TO THIS ARE JUST
ONE MAKE SURE THAT.
PROTECTIONS ARE IN PLACE.
I DO APPRECIATE AS CENTER
INNOCENCE QUESTION. IN TO BE
HONEST CENTER WHERE WE'RE STILL
WORKING THAT THROUGH.
SO HERE ARE THE AREAS THAT WE'RE
STILL WORKING THROUGH THE ISSUE
OF NOTIFICATION.
I'M SO. ONCE ABOUT ITS FLAG.
BUT I NOTICE WILL BE MAILED OUT.
PARDON IN THEN VOTERS WOULD BE
GIVEN.
A PERIOD TO RESPOND.
SOME SAY EIGHT SOME SAY LESS.
SO WE'RE WORKING THROUGH THAT
RIGHT NOW.
IN ADDITION.
WE'VE HEARD FROM SOME COUNTIES
WHO WHAT FLEXIBILITY AYE. ABOUT
HOW TO NOTIFY VOTERS.
DOES IT HAVE TO BE THROUGH SNAIL
MAIL. CAN GO VIA. EMAIL FOR
EXAMPLE IF THEIR EMAILS ON
RECORD.
SO THOSE ARE TWO AREAS CANDIDLY
THAT WE'RE STILL WORKING
THROUGH.
AND I APPRECIATE. R. IN
PARTICULAR ACLU THIS IS BEEN A A
SIGNIFICANT ISSUE FOR THEM. ON
AND WE'RE WORKING THROUGH RIGHT
NOW WAYS BY THE REGISTRAR
VOTERS.
ASSOCIATION A IS WELL AS OTHER
GROUPS IN PARTICULAR COUNTIES TO
BE OUT OF WORK THROUGH THE
NOTIFICATION PROCESS.
ARM.
IT WOULD BE HAPPY TO HAVE ARE
THE ACT ARE THE BALLOTS OPENED.
BEFORE THEY GET.
CONVENE
THROWN OUT BECAUSE THE
SIGNATURES ARE THEY THROWN OUT.
THE SIGNATURES.
FOR THEIR OPENED.
DETERMINE ITS ED DEPENDING ON
THE COUNTY.
OKAY SO IT ASHER DOING.
I OKAY.
OKAY COLLEGE ICE.
THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH I DO
NOT MEAN HONESTLY JOHNSON SORRY
MY NOTES I AM YEAH. THINK.
OF VERY GOOD NOTICING NO OTHER
COMMENTS FROM THE MEMBERS I.
APPRECIATE YOUR CLARIFICATION IN
TERMS THE WORK THE NEEDS TO BE
DONE BEFORE WE KNOW SOME DETAILS
NEED TO BE WORKED OUT AND LOOKS
LIKE YOU'RE COMMITTED TO WORK ON
THOSE STAKEHOLDERS AND TALK WITH
THE ACLU WOULDN'T KEEPING THEM
SO I THINK THAT'S ALL PART.
MOST IMPORTANTLY THOUGH.
WE CAN.
TALK ABOUT SIZE OF OUR MATH OF
RETURN IN FRENCH AS THE
VOTERS-OF CALIFORNIA AND THEIR
VOTES
ARE BEING CAST ASIDE WITHOUT.
PROPER NOTICE AND IS CERTAINLY
NOT A FOR THOSE COMMUNITIES THAT
MAY HAVE MORE TROUBLE GETTING TO
THE BALLOT OR PARTISAN IN THE
PROCESS I'M I'M PRO THE WORST.
EXAMPLE I SHOULD HAVE VERY
LITTLE SYMPATHY.
FROM THIS LEGISLATURE BECAUSE
MY SIGNATURE IS JUST TERRIBLE
AND IT DOESN'T LOOK ANYTHING
LIKE MY DRIVER'S LICENSE
SOMETIMES SO EVEN FROM. DUMB
HUMAN AIR WE MAY HAVE PROBLEMS
BUT ALSO FROM A CULTURAL ISSUES
DISABILITIES ETCETERA CITING
IT'S IMPORTANT RECTIFY THIS OUT
WE SEEN.
I THINK THAT THE MOST RECENT
DATA I HAVE HERE IS.
TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND NINE
HUNDRED SIXTY FIVE BALLOTS WERE
REJECTED.
ANGEL IN THE GENERAL ELECTION
OF FOR NON MATCHING SIGNATURES
CORRECT.
.
THAT'S THAT IS THE MARGIN OF
ERROR IN REPUBLICAN DEMOCRATIC
ANY SEAT THIS IS NOT A PARTISAN
ISSUE SO I HOPE.
WORKING ALSO WITH THE VICE
CHAIR HERE WE CAN MOVE A
BIPARTISAN MEASURE FORWARD AND.
THE ONLY THING I ASK IS THAT
YOU KEEP WORKING WITH MY VERY
CABLE COMMITTEE STAFF AS YOU
MOVE THIS FORWARD AND.
.
LOOKS LIKE YOUR COMMITTED DOING
THAT SO.
WITH THAT.
LET'S CALL THE ROLL.
CALL VOTE.
SO NUMB FILE A NUMBER ONE S. B.
SYMPHONY NIGHT.
