GOP, MIA? (Dems blocking polling places in FLA?)

GOP, MIA? [Michael Graham]

“Michael,

Danny Devito and his wife held a Kerry rally at the ENTRANCE of a South County (Palm Beach) polling place today. They blocked the entrance for 20 minutes before my colleague protested.”

He tells me the Democrat Party workers have been swarming the early polling sites in Florida, while the GOP has had a much smaller presence. He also says Democrats are regularly interfering with voters as they head to the polls, blocking access to parking and confronting clearly identified Republicans as they approach the polls.

Where’s the GOP?

Isn't this illegal?

More protesters aren't the answer. Arrests are!

Your friend should go to the police station and file a formal complaint against Danny and Rhea for their actions and write a letter to the state attorney general stating they interfered with his access to a polling place. Since this is a federal election, he should also write a letter to the U.S. Attorney. Complaining on here is not as effective as complaining -- in writing -- to the authorities.

This report was made by a NRO writer, who posted it at The Corner at NRO. I am posting it to get the word out.

This is about the third report of this from the same source.

If this is all happening as it's being described, I find it hard to believe there aren't numerous outraged reports coming from voters and Republican poll watchers and the Florida Republican organization. Even if Republican poll watchers are outnumbered, they're still there, aren't they? Not even one photograph or video or written report other than this source. And Danny DeVito managed to block a polling place for 20 minutes and not one single enterprising person got a photo of it? I don't get it.

The people in Dade County must be so intimidated that they're nonfunctional if this is true as stated.

The right better get some balls and get on the ball Now! How can we be tough on foreign terrorist if we can't even take on the democrat terrorist here at home! I contacted my Senator but he said it is a state matter and we, fortunately, do not have a problem here. (I live in solid Bush Country) but it seems to me, this sh*t in Florida effects all of us.

Video cameras are a must in the car when going to the polling places because you know the dems will have everything taped. I would say if you see any unusual activity to tape it and ask a poll watcher if it is legal and if not, call the press. You know every TV station in every town would want to get pictures of voter intimidation, no, never mind. They won't care if Rep. get intimidated.

Someone had posted a GOP email address here earlier today to report this kind of stuff, do a search for it.

The police will not do anything as long as they are left-wing fascist Nazi DEMOCRATS. Just like unions these anti-Americans have a free ticket to beat, and harass as many times as they like. I and my family will vote tomorrow here in Florida, I only hope that there is not a fascist democrat in my way.

That's "electioneering"-- here in Georgia it is illegal to do this within 50 feet of a polling place, and far as I know, other states have similar laws.
