Poll Intimidation
self

Posted on 11/02/2009 4:04:29 AM PST by Phantom4

I wonder if Obama’s thugs will be dispatched to the polling places on Tuesday. Remember the intimidation at the polls last fall, and Holdren’s sitting on his hands about it? Anyone have an idea how we tea party types can find some legal way to prevent this, maybe citizens who carry camcorders and whip them out if needed to document trouble? Any ideas?

You answered your own question, IMO. Cameras plus cell phones plus an electorate that has now been sensitized to the issue. May not be the complete answer (yet) but it ought to help.

Poll watchers with cameras and cell phones (several people at each precinct) are absolutely necessary to stop the most flagrant voter intimidation (think ACORN) that will be going on this Tuesday.

In our state, Poll Watchers are the ones who also check the vote totals at the end of the voting day and are allowed to call that number in to their HQ.

It is a thankless task but absolutely necessary to cut down on the vote fraud and voter intimidation.

This here black lady is voting McDonnell. I dare someone to try and intimidate me. However, so many people will be making assumptions about who I will be voting for...I doubt anyone would bother me anyway.

I saw this on BigGovernment.com (Breitbart's site.)

[Ed Note: Big Government will be working closely on election day with Election Journal and its army of citizen journalists and videographers to document any instances of voter fraud in New Jersey. We welcome the help of readers in New Jersey. If you would like to volunteer to help maintain the integrity of the democratic process, please send an email to electionjournal@gmail.com. You can use this same email to report any voting irregularities you witness on Tuesday. Also, please send in any of your own documentary video of problems at polling places. Big Media may ignore stories of voter fraud, but together we can shine the critical light on it.]

I’m not sure there’s anything you can do about it aside from refusing to be intimidated. You can document it but that will only lead to the justice department sitting on their hands.

Who could have imagined that the Dept of “Justice”
would help, encourage, and defend thugs who
illegally “monitor” and threaten voters at the voting polls?

AG Holder’s Amerika is nothing like what America used to be.

I think you meant AG Eric Holder. Holdren’s a science geek Czar or some such thing who favors killing people.

Besides it is the dead voting dem I worry about.
OLots of dead folks ya know.

I am gonna smile going in and smile bigger coming out. Thugs are bullies and cowards. If you don’t look scared, what are they gonna do? Stare you to death? Give you the evil eye?
Just in case though, like I posted on an earlier thread, I am taking a couple of the kid’s Fisher Price toys. A toy cellphone and a toy flashlight. Whack someone with either or both, and trust me, they’re gonna know they’ve been wounded.
I know I know. My kid wails those things like Terry Bradshaw.

Be a volunteer pollster. I’m poll watching and handing out sample ballots in Richmond for the McDonnell landslide tomorrow am. Bring your cell phone.

...that would be a safe assumption too! Did you vote Obama?

Just put on a big Obama button pin. That kind of camouflage will get you right past them with nary a worry.

In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny “he don’t know me very well, do he?” ...that would be a big fat “NO!”

Find ‘em, and intimidate them with cameras and threats of jail time. Call the cops.
