I'll be working with a group of nice fellas who will be visiting the

not intimidating minority voters. If we come across any GOP voter
intimidators, we'll help them make other plans for the day.

Is anyone else curious how these nice people will make sure they have
other
plans for the day? Maybe I am reading more into this than I should,
but
it
sounds like a not so subtle threat of violence.



Nothing subtle about it. If we find you interfering with folks on the
way to the polls, we'll ask you to move on. You'll have a choice at that
point. We're not talking about what happens inside the polling
place...but on the approaches... In other words, if you stop minority
voters heading to the polls and try to discourage them, we'll discourage
you.

The only people outside of my polling place has been the liberal type
that
ask me if I need a voter guide. Sometimes, I respond that I would like
one
of their guides so I know not to vote for their favored candidates.



We're not talking about the folks you find right outside the polls
asking if you'd like help. We're talking about the folks who block off
roads leading to the polls, or hand out flyers a few blocks away saying
the polling place has moved, or harass minority voters in some way.

The only time I've heard of this happening is by Democrats turning away
Republicans at the voting precinct door.
