We are doing an excellent job of GOTV and we are fighting the spin war as well as the GOP has ever done. Our activism cannot stop there -- we can get the people to the polls, but we must also be sure that they will be allowed to vote.
I plan on taking off some of Election Day and hitting the polling stations in the poorer neighborhoods of my fine city and watching to make sure that there are no shenanigans going on. We have all heard the stories that the GOP plan on challenging people as they try to enter the polls and vote!
We must stop this if we see it happening.
It should be quite simple. If you see someone trying to enter the polling station and then you see someone in a bow-tie, holding a clipboard, walk up to that person and start talking to them, you can bet that they are probably attempting to challenge them.
At that point, you walk up and very calmly, but firmly, say, "Is there anything wrong here?" If the goon (because that's what they are) doesn't back down, offer to call the police.
Whatever you do, don't be violent. But be assertive.
We cannot allow them to steal this election as well, by intimidating voters.
And frankly, no bow-tie wearing GOP moron can out-intimidate the Kossacks.
