In South Carolina, someone is circulating a FAKE letter claiming to be from the NAACP saying that voters will be arrested at the polls if they have outstanding parking tickets or are behind in their child support.
The letter also says that voters must show 2 photo IDs, a Social Security card and a handwriting sample in order to vote

Of course, voter intimidation has a long and sordid history in South Carolina. As the following reports suggest:
Democrats in some areas of South Carolina would depend on the commerical taxi companies to supply transportation, but according to a GOP activist, "We'd tie them up by using our phone banks. We'd keep calling the taxicabs on the phone and get them to go to bogus addresses."

In Dillon County, several days before election day, state Rep. Son Kinon, a white Republican, mailed out more than 3,000 brochures to black voters. On the outside, the brochure read, "You have always been my friend, so don't chance GOING TO JAIL on Election Day!"... "SLED agents, FBI agents, people from the Justice Department and undercover agents will be in Dillon County working this election. People who you think are your friends, and even your neighbors, could be the very ones that turn you in. THIS ELECTION IS NOT WORTH GOING TO JAIL!!!!!!"
