| Description | Members of the Boston Tea Party (BTP) have voted to remove student Tiffany Briscoe as the party’s presidential nominee. At the moment, she has been replaced with NOTA (None of the Above).
Briscoe, who falsely claimed she was a member of the Howard Community College Board of Trustees and a graduate of the school, was selected at the BTP’s nominating convention last December. After former opponent Robert Milnes discovered that Briscoe was just a student at the school, BTP chairman Darryl Perry requested she either step down or acknowledge the misrepresentation. She took the latter route, and remained the party’s nominee.
Milnes then requested that the chair’s decision to not remove Briscoe be overturned, citing both the misrepresentation and her failure to make media appearances. After receiving four seconds, the matter was put before the community as a vote. Rampant voting fraud forced Perry to invalidate four votes in support of Briscoe, resulting in a final tally of 9 to 3, meeting the 2/3 majority needed to overturn the chair. |
