A Poll Watchers Tale - Vote Fraud in Houston, Texas

Flyer you did a fine job and I salute you! If that lying rat lawyer, Dog Gone ever pays off all the beer he owes me, I'll ask you along to drink it. It's up around 15 now.

[TheGrimReaper]

The last couple of times I just showed up to vote I think I outraged the election officials!

[Flyer]

One election worker during early voting.

I was reading from the election code and didn't see that. It's a minor point, though.

[Flyer]

It's up around 15 now

Sounds good, but I don't know what y'all will drink.

[Flyer]

Concealed handgun permit holder since 1998.

I saw two folks use their concealed permit for I.D. yesterday. I know they did it just to tweak what was probably a Democrat election clerk.

[Lily of the Field]

Understand. You have other objections. Just thought I would save you the time of arguing that point.

I can't access the Statutes website right now or I would have given you the cite from the Statutes. Somedays they make me pull my hair out making sure I've looked at all that are applicable.

My experience with poll watcher challenges is that the attorney you spoke with was possibly essentially correct. Poll watchers are limited to challenges they make at the polling places.

You'll have a difficult time proving that the voter in question was not entitled to assistance or that there was illegal influence on their vote. Not saying it didn't happen - it is just difficult to prove.

Good luck and good citizenship by being willing to get involved in the election process.

[ForGod'sSake]

The attorney you spoke to can't be correct. If you can't challenge for unlawful assistance, then the law is meaningless.

I just went back through the thread and this particular point jumps out at me. If a poll watcher cannot issue a challange regarding voter assistance, then who is authorized to challange?

I wonder just how long the RATS have been running their scams on Pubbies? Long enough to become comfortable with it apparently?

CHALLENGE

A challenge may occur before or after a person is accepted for voting, but may not occur after an accepted voter enters a voting station or booth. [Sec. 63.010(c)].

Sorry for the double post. Double clicked.

Forgot to thank you for being a Poll Watcher. I am a sometimes election worker and know your job was not an easy one, but it is a most worthwhile one. Thanks again.

[ForGod'sSake]

You are entitled to receive assistance if you:

Cannot read or write...

What's that about an informed electorate being necessary for the survival of a free state?

It probably shouldn't, but this really bothers me. What are the chances of someone unable to read and write voting for a Pubbie? Does it make sense to anyone else that for a person to vote, they should at least be literate?

My understanding is that the only recourse poll watchers have in the event they observe what they believe to be violations other than voter eligibility is to document what they see and take it to the election judge (which apparently Flyer did) and to call the Elections Division (it's unclear to me that this was done.)

[Dog Gone]

Flyer you did a fine job and I salute you! If that lying rat lawyer, Dog Gone ever pays off all the beer he owes me, I'll ask you along to drink it. It's up around 15 now.

When that happens, I'll have Dr. Clara Harris do the valet parking for y'all.

[Revel]

Great effort. It appears that they have Cut off your hands though. You can see, but there is nothing you can do. There is no way that assistance should ever be provided by a single member of any party. This is how blatant the fraud is today. Probably accounts for %25 of the vote in many places. A those running these polling places have nothing to fear. 74% of kids admit cheating in school. It is the American way now it seems. How sad. Are we doomed ?

Damn you're good, didn't know if you would catch that LOL!

[RikaStrom]

Excellent report Flyer. I can't believe the illegal assistance, I mean, I do believe it, but geez louize.

[Lily of the Field]

Voters Rights Act of 1965.

Not saying it is right or wrong, but it is the law of the land.

[ForGod'sSake]

Voters Rights Act of 1965.

LBJ and cronies. Figgers. You probably need no education on the sleaze that happened at the hands of LBJ.

The more I see on this thread, the more important I think it is. I hope we see more threads like it exposing other tactics of our enemy. I hope there are more patriots like Flyer that will place themselves, temporarily at least, in the cesspools to study, and maybe even deter some of the RATS.
