They will contact Sec. of States across the country, County Board of Elections, and Judges of Elections at each polling place to investigate any reports sent in.

| 1. Kick and Rec. I saw that piece. Said they'd investigate every issue they receive a tip about. |
|
Good on them for providing some accountability.

| 3. I'm glad they're doing this. I think Faux is doing something similar for the OTHER side... |
|
you know-like reporting if anyone sees Black or Hispanic people voting...or something. :)

| 6. In theory it is a wonderful idea.. however.. |
|
I full expect that the manufactured "tips" coming from the Reich Wing will pour in like a flood.. Then MSNBC can give these lies wings by doing a story on them, etc.. I hope I'm wrong, of course..

| 7. I agree and also hope we're wrong. |
|
Nothing like taking up all the resources with phony tips while the real fraud goes unattended.

| 9. MSNBC doesn't have the RW viewership that FAUX does.. |
|
..but it's still a cable news network, and I would hazard to say that there are plenty of RW viewers who tune in regularly.. and, if these same folks are given the opportunity to smear, and obfuscate, well, I think they might..

| 12. If RWers make stuff up it will be discovered to be unsubstantiated and reported as such |

| 14. If you see voter intimidation, contact your local Dem Party before |
|
you waste time with the media, The Dems are likely to have local lawyers on call and have a chance of putting a quick stop to it
(1) Complain immediately to officials at the precinct (2) Call the Dems immediately and ask them what else they want you to do (3) Complain to the local board of election (4) Notify local and national media
