“threatened” (for lack of a better word) and just vote quietly and don’t discuss..........

Where I live, I get hassled by Dems. I had a McCain bumper sticker and had a mob of African Americans surround me yelling insults, about a week before the last election. At the polls they get aggressive, make you promise to vote Dem. If you don't, you just know you may have car problems when you come back out, or get a baseball bat in the face. So I agree with them, tell them I will vote Obama.

I no longer put bumper stickers on the car. It's too dangerous.

What you mentioned is very real (as you well know) and why I am convinced there are a very large number of blue collar dems that will QUIETLY vote for Romney but not tell anyone.

Exactly, and in my area, most conservatives tend to be older and/or were raised to be polite and non-confrontational.

I’ve already decided that, IF there is any sort of disruptive attempt at intimidation at my voting place, I will go directly to the police station and demand someone accompany me back so I can vote in safety. I will then make sure to contact my elderly neighbors and warn them, also offer to go back with them and get more help if needed.
