Holder Sends 'Election Monitors' to Polls NOV 3, 2014 • BY DANIEL HALPER
Attorney General, Eric Holder is dispatching "federal election monitors" to polls tomorrow for Election Day. http://weaselzippers.us/wp-content/uploads/BPP-500x281.jpg "As Americans across the country prepare to vote in tomorrow's midterm elections, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that the Department of Justice has dispatched federal monitors to polling places around the country," reads the press release from the Department of Justice.
"Just as they do during every election, these officials will gather information on numerous aspects of local election procedures, including whether voters are treated differently depending on their race or color; whether jurisdictions are adequately serving individuals with disabilities; whether jurisdictions are complying with the provisional ballot requirements of the Help America Vote Act; and whether jurisdictions are complying with the Voting Rights Act's requirement to provide bilingual election materials and assistance in areas of need.

Dont they have cops at all the polls?
Will the poll monitors be on the lookout for black panthers with clubs?
Black Pampers
Who watches the watchers indeed.
Don’t drop the ‘coon or you’ll be called a raciiiissst!
There were two monitors at my polling place last week.
The first one wanted ID even though it isn’t law yet.
I will not say what persuasion she was but she didn’t look happy.
Holder to his vote counters:
“Don’t you dare think about
counting the votes fairly.”
Real easy - bring friends to vote, go in groups. Bring cameras. Surround the assw*pe if he/they try to block you, and have someone immediately call the local police.
A monitor wanted ID? Was she an election official doing the standard checkin or just a bystander? If bystander she would have gotten an unfortunate, potentially troubling reaction from me. And a big legal phone call immediately.
Those are my peeps!
yep
Well, back in the Jackson days - Andrew, not Jesse - they used to roll out the whisky barrels on election day and quite a few heads were cracked along with those barrels. It wasn’t all that long ago and we haven’t really changed all that much. This would be a very, very stupid fight to start.
Thomas Sowell -Voter Fraud and Voter I.D.
Creators Syndicate ^ | November 4, 2014 | Thomas Sowell
One of the biggest voter frauds may be the idea promoted by Attorney General Eric Holder and others that there is no voter fraud, that laws requiring voters to have a photo identification are just attempts to suppress black voting.
Reporter John Fund has written three books on voter fraud and a recent survey by Old Dominion University indicates that there are more than a million registered voters who are not citizens, and who therefore are not legally entitled to vote.
The most devastating account of voter fraud may be in the book “Injustice” by J. Christian Adams. He was a Justice Department attorney, who detailed with inside knowledge the voter frauds known to the Justice Department, and ignored by Attorney General Holder and Company.
One of these frauds involved sending out absentee ballots to people who had never asked for them. Then a political operator would show up — uninvited — the day the ballots arrived and “help” the voter to fill them out. Sometimes the intruders simply took the ballots, filled them out and forged the signatures of the voters.
These were illegal votes for Democrats, which may well be why Eric Holder sees no evil, hears no evil and speaks no evil.
As for race-based “voter suppression,” amid all the political hysteria, how many hard facts have you heard? Probably none that supports that claim. Widely available free photo identification cards mean that poverty is no barrier to voting.
Since blacks and whites both have to show photo I.D. for everything from cashing checks to getting on a plane, why has requiring a photo I.D. for voting caused such shrill outcries?
Unfortunately, this is part of the cynical politics of promoting as much racial polarization and paranoia as possible, in hopes of getting more black voters to turn out to vote for the Democrats.
Nothing is too gross when promoting racial hysteria in an election year. Veteran Democrat Congressman Charlie Rangel from Harlem declared that Republicans “don’t disagree — they hate!” According to Rangel, “Some of them believe that slavery isn’t over and that they won the Civil War!”
Republicans did win the Civil War. That’s why there is no more slavery. It was a Republican president who issued the Emancipation Proclamation. It was a Republican-controlled Congress that voted for the 13th Amendment, outlawing
slavery.
In the 1960s, a higher percentage of Republicans than Democrats voted for the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. If we are going to talk about history, let’s at least get the facts right.
Only an utter ignorance of history, in this era of dumbed-down education, could allow demagogues like Rangel to get away with the absurdities that abound in election year politics.
Images of lynching and Jim Crow laws that made blacks sit in the back of buses are used against Republicans, even though the “solid South” was solidly controlled by Democrats during that era.

They think that they can get away with anything. Not true says the Lord...
Are they all black? Will they carry clubs or nightsticks? Or guns?
including whether voters are treated differently depending on their race or color;
They might want to concentrate on whether they are ENTITLED to vote.
Fraudsters.
I cannot honestly say whether she was an official or not. I was next in line to get the paper ballot to be verified by name and address.
I provided it to show how simple it was. It is the law of the land here next year. She was an Obama voter to me and probably trying to get me a provisional.
Unfortunately for her I was completely registered and on the rolls. The lady that gave me that ballot did not ask for my ID. I did it on principle.
