CITY'S OLDEST OAK TREE REGISTERED TO VOTE SINCE 1986 🌳🗳️😂

Описание: The Maricopa County registrar's office ran a database cleanup in March 2024. They flagged 311 duplicate records, 47 deceased voters, and one bur oak tree at 1140 Greenway Lane. Someone registered the tree in 1986 under the name "Burton O. Kestler." It had voted in every municipal election since — thirty-eight consecutive cycles. Poll workers never questioned it because an elderly man named Herb Daltry had been casting the ballot in person for decades. Herb, now ninety-one, told investigators his neighbor planted the oak the year her daughter was born. "She deserved two voices," he said. "One that grew." The county voided the registrations. They did not remove the tree.
