In reply to the discussion: Poll watchers could bring "chaos" in Ohio and elsewhere, national expert says [View all]Botany
(77,441 posts)..... like me
and other trained voter protection people are working.
Because:
Only one person is allowed inside the precinct per party as an observer ....
and if the state GOP credentials these a-holes then they will be neutered
because nobody outside of a poll worker can challenge a voter's right to
vote ...... and those are for a very limited # of cases ..... so if they are
inside the precinct and cause problems they will be asked to leave.
If they come out from Texas or any state outside of Ohio THEY AREN'T
ALLOWED INSIDE A POLLING PRECINCT.
Nobody is allowed to interact w/ a voter with in a 100' of the front door
of the poll.
I can't tell you everything but we have been getting ready for a long time
for this election. This is not in 2004!
BTW We have ways to catch voting fraud (cheating) @ the machine level too.
BTW part 2 ..... a good % of the vote will already be in the bag by election day
because of early voting ..... I worked an 98% African American precinct in 2008
and 60%+ of the voters registered to vote at the precinct had already voted.
