Detroit residents who received parking tickets outside City Hall or the elections office on West Grand Boulevard while casting absentee ballots in the days leading up to Tuesday's election can get those tickets voided.
Huge lines formed at the City Clerk's office in the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center and at the Detroit Election Commission before the election. Daniel Cherrin, spokesman to Mayor Ken Cockrel Jr., said that parking spaces were in short supply and it would be unfair to issue tickets as residents exercised their right to vote.
Cherrin said anyone who received a ticket while trying to vote at the two locations should contact the Municipal Parking Department about getting it voided.
Well, that's great news. Obama is saving us money already! : )
