MONTGOMERY, AL (AP) -
The Democratic donkey that has traditionally
marked the spot for voting a straight Democratic ticket won't appear on
Alabama's ballots Nov. 6.
The Republican elephant will be on the ballots.
A spokeswoman for Alabama's
secretary of state says the Democratic Party staff asked to change the
party's logo from the head of a donkey to the words "Alabama Democrats."
Democratic Party Vice Chairman Joe Reed says the change was never
approved by the State Democratic Executive Committee and it could hurt
the Democratic vote.
Party Executive Director
Bradley Davidson said the party staff was all new and didn't realize
they need the approval of the party executive committee. He said the
party is contacting Democrats statewide to make sure they look for
"Alabama Democrats" instead of a donkey head.
