More Incompetence From Vincent at Blunt's Department of Revenue

Perhaps if Trish Vincent, Gov. Blunt's Director of Revenue, wasn't spending all of her time stonewalling the State Auditor and handing out fee offices to the Governor's political cronies, she might have a little time to actually manage her department.  And if she did, maybe they wouldn't have thrown away $55,000 of the taxpayers money.

Here's the AP story:

The Department of Revenue acknowledged Thursday that it printed 20,000 sets of duplicate license plates, 1,502 of which already had been distributed to motorists before officials learned of the mistake July 8.

The department said it notified the Missouri State Highway Patrol of the potential law enforcement problem July 11, but it hadn't publicized the problem when The Associated Press inquired about it Thursday.

The mistake will cost the state about $55,000 to print new license plates, plus the cost of shipping them to motor vehicle licensing offices and individuals who were given the wrong plates.

 It's no wonder that Blunt and Vincent don't want State Auditor McCaskill to have access to the DOR records.  If they can't keep track of what license plate numbers they have handed out, how can you expect them to keep track of all the state property they have given away to the Governor's political friends?
