Johnson criticized for card redesign

The new design of Hillsborough County's voter information cards doesn't include the addresses of polling places. Instead, that detail is included on a letter outside the edges of the detachable card. That's irked some voters and state Sen. Arthenia Joyner. Joyner told Johnson at a forum on Tuesday that some people throw out the paper with the polling location on it, and then aren't sure where to vote and may not be able to go to Johnson's Web site to find out. "What does the little old lady do who doesn't own a computer?" Joyner asked Johnson. Johnson said he'd consider putting the information back on the card. Read more about it here.
