He’s guilty of engaging in partisan activity to give the Republican Party an advantage, and of some voter suppression. He’s not guilty of being indifferent to child molestation.
your original tweet says people owe an apology to Merrill for thinking he might not be a fair judge of election rules. That's what I was responding to.

Okay, point taken. Probably better said that his reluctance to opine on the moral fitness of either candidate was appropriate for one whose job it is to be Judge of elections?

Questionable actions Merrill took that earned skepticism - low-balled turnout estimate, saying 25% when actual turnout was 43% of reg voters. This could have affected preparedness - repeatedly made unfounded allegations of vote fraud - refused to correctly state AL recount law
-
also: refused to properly inform counties & probate judges of the new law weakening felon disenfranchisment rules, as
@aldotcom investigations showed. -
He also went to AL Supreme Court, ex parte, at last minute before election to get a ruling allowing digital ballot images to be destroyed.
