Won't do any good - especially here in SC. During the 1998 state elections I witnessed a Democrat "poll worker" - she had the stickers on for Jim Clyburn-D SC take ballots out of the hands of elderly black voters and change their votes. The poll watching staff told me she had been doing that all day (this was about 5:00). I called both the SC Republican Party headquarters and the SC State Election Commission. The Republicans told me "that's how the democrats win elections" and the person at the State Election commission told me "We're on our way to confiscate the ballot box". Point is - do not expect the local Republicans to have what it takes to defend us from voter fraud. Unfortunately they are girlie men when it comes down to it - especially here in SC.
Well, I know the Republican party doesn't offer much support or reinforcement in this neck of the woods. I'm not sure if it's because they're a bunch of wussie girlie men, or if they've just got some kind of agreement to leave the RATs alone here and let them be about their fraud unimpeded because they have bigger fish to fry. Either way, we owe most of the changes in this state to one fireball FReeper who has singlehandedly taken on the RAT power structure here, from the courthouse to the governor's office (yes, I know we have a "Republican" governor, but he mostly serves as a rubber stamp for RAT policies). Unfortunately, she endured such harassment at the hands of the RATs, that she asked Jim to pull her account because they were tracking her by it. She still lurks here though.
Miss Edie, you probably remember that the SC 6th district was gerrymandered by court order some years back to create a black majority district, so as to provide representation for African-Americans. That makes the 6th virtually a fiefdom-for-life for the Hon. Rep. Clyburn.
One precinct appeared to be clean as a whistle, or at least it was clean after one poll watcher contested a ballot early on. The poll worker was called out to the voter's car to help a handicapped person. But that help included holding the hand that was punching the ballot with the stylus.
