It is being reported that Democratic Party operatives are evicting court-appointed Republican poll watchers from polling places in Philadelphia. Specifically, this reportedly has happened in Ward 32, Div 13; Ward 43, Div 14; Ward 56, Div 1; Ward 56, Div 22; Ward 32, Div 28; Ward 32, Div 28; Ward 12, Div 17; Ward 39, Div 1; Ward 24, Div 9; Ward 18, Div 25; Ward 43, Div 14; Ward 29, Div 18; Ward 65, Div 19; Ward 20, Div 1; and Ward 6, Div 11. The idea is to kick out the Republicans, then stuff the box with ballots marked for Obama. This is how some of these precincts have achieved 99 to 100% turnout in past elections.
The story is, as they say, developing
UPDATE: The New Black Panthers are out, too, guarding the same voting location where they were criminally prosecuted for voter intimidation in 2008.
Where is law enforcement? Are PA voters going to stand for this blatant law breaking? The military should be posted at swing state polls in the future, guarding our elections as they did the Iraqi vote.
No boots on the ground in Philly to observe actual ‘turn out’ then.
And I don’t trust ONE BIT what our local alphabet news tell me.
Thanks.
On Quinn and Rose, an emailer reported that Tom Smith’s name did not appear on her machine. She brought it to the attention of poll workers, and had to do as write-in. They’re working on confirming. Sorry, can’t remember where — pris, do you remember?
Welcome to FR.
They were told to stand down.
“Evicting” them on what grounds? They didn’t pay their mortgage on the polling place? This needs confirmation.
Yep....law enforcement is needed NOW.
WOW!! THANK YOU once again, guys. You all are awesome.
Republic, catch this — wow.
I just heard an eye witness on the radio saying he saw it. Maybe he's lying, but this is philly where the black panthers are allowed to stand in front of the polls with nightsticks so I beleive it.
I live in the Philly burbs. I live in a well to do, well educated area. My precinct is probably 40% Jewish. Voter turnout this morning was much lower than 2008. We waited maybe five minutes this morning. Last time we waited about half an hour. And this time they were requesting IDs so it was a much more labor intensive process to check in. Please God let this be a sign that the limosine liberals are sitting this one out.
Bill Bennet reported this on his Morning in America program.
Breitbart has this up and a link that it is being reported by the PA GOP and I clicked that link and it’s a tweet by a GOPer saying the layers are at the ready. Seems the GOP is on top of it.
Breitbart does have video of the BP presence there today.
layers=lawyers, sorry

Stupid question, don’tcha think?
At the very least, the dems are going to hold up one or two key states with legal challenges involving uncounted/missing/suddenly found ballots and more.
We will not know the outcome of the election by tomorrow at this time. the left is too good at subterfuge and they’ve come too close to their socialist dream to let it go without fighting tooth and nail.
Fox just reported the repubs just got a court order that the republican poll watchers have to be allowed back in the polling locations.
Proper spelling:
“Lieyers”
They were told to stand down
I am sure that order will be garbled and these guys will carry on just like their brothers in Libya.
JUST NOW saw on Fox that they have gotten a COURT ORDER to allow the republican inspectors back into the polls at Philly.
Also just showed footage of a New Black Panther pacing outside a polling place.
This is why close elections are gut wrenching and an amazing Romney turnout is required.
The only...ONLY...way to prevent D shenanigans is to get vote totals beyond whats possible for Ds overcome by illegitimate means. It’s why a 1% R advantage is no advantage at all. An R Gov or Sec State can only do so much but ultimately, if possible, the Ds will get it kicked to a friendly state judge. That is their playbook.
