When Alvin Greene won a primary election in June 2010, it wasn’t just us Palmetto State people who were surprised as hell.
The shock that an unemployed, non-honorably discharged veteran awaiting trial for obscenity charges could somehow beat a well-known political figure, and without having done any type of campaigning, shook from coast to coast – including the West Coast home of Jason Grant Smith.
But he didn’t respond in the format chosen by us South Carolinians, many of whom just argued (and drank) and debated (and drank) instead of trying to figure out just who the hell was this Greene guy, and how the heebie jeebies did he wind up taking 60 percent in the primary.
Instead, actor/writer/director Smith actually sought answers, which he’s now finalizing into a documentary titled “I Voted?”
The movie, covering not just Greene’s surprising upset but the overall imposition of electronic voting machines, recently completed its filming and is now in the production phase.
Smith intends to release “I Voted?” in time for the 2014 election season.
