These imbeciles are in a heavily democratic precinct trying to intimidate voters? By weaving a baton? I would like to see them dropped of somewhere in Western Pennsylvania.


BTW I'm not condoning what these guys are doing but Republicans crying voter intimidation is funny.

Sure, they would make fantastic SS agents. I hear they're quipped with superman like abilities (lazer eyes, super human strength, etc).

Funny I went to CNN and they would not say that the guys were dressed up as Black Panthers and did everthing they could to dance around what was up with the two men. One had a badge and was allowed to stay and the other was escorted off the property.

I heard that the cop said "I'm sorry that I ruined your Black Panther party".

re: Election Day Thread 2008

Back to our voting experiences, it took me about 5 minutes all together mainly because my ballot didn't go through, so they had to destroy it and give me another one.

Our station seemed to be pretty efficient all day, according to people I have talked to.

re: Election Day Thread 2008

OMG, they're "intimidating" voters in a precinct that went 95% for John Kerry in 2004. I'm dying from laughter

My, how far has Drudge fallen. Pathetic.

re: Election Day Thread 2008

Does anyone know how exit polling works? I just thought about that.. and I've always wondered how it works. I mean, I dunno how they handle it, I just know the few people I talked to didn't get polled for anything...

I didn't get polled for anything either. I mean it just seems to be the type of thing where they do it some places and not others...

Right now exit polls are showing Obama as 15+ in PA.

Still developing story.
