Screw the vote

As it always the case, whatever GOPers are obsessing about, it's because they're doing it themselves. Saw on the twitter that Fox Spews is making a big deal about some black guy opening doors at the polls for old white ladies. Implication being Black Panther intimidation. Which is, of course, a lie.

In real life it's the Tea Party cons planning on intimidating black voters. An investigation has been requested:

"We have seen their list and it strongly suggests that the Pennsylvania Republican Party is coordinating with the Pittsburgh Tea Party to target African American voters for intimidation at the polls," said Nicole Berner, SEIU Associate General Counsel. "The Pennsylvania Republican Party has serious questions to answer about where they are putting their poll watchers and why."

Meanwhile, in Ohio, Republican observers forged signatures to illegally gain access to the polls.

Yesterday we reported that True the Vote was attempting to place observers at precincts in Central Ohio, focusing on African American districts. We also noted that there might be some problems with the forms they submitted to the Franklin County Board of Elections (FCBOE).

The FCBOE met today and determined that True the Vote had likely falsified the forms submitted for general election observers. The new observer forms, filed over the past few days by True the Vote representative (and Hilliard Tea Party Member) Jan Loar, used candidate signatures copied from a previous set of forms filed in early October.

All but one of the six candidates whose names appeared on the original form had withdrawn permission to use their signatures prior to the submission of today’s forms. During the BOE meeting Candidate Terri Jamison spoke up to say her name was “forged” on the latest round of forms.

And actual ballot fraud, yep, GOPers are the ones commiting that too. Got your GOPer trying to vote twice in two different polling places. And then there's your Republican elections workers altering already cast ballots in Oregon.

Not wonder they don't care that Romney has lied his face off for the last six years. Their "Christian values" apparently allow for lying and cheating as long as it helps them win.
