Are things getting out of hand in NY-23?
I just got off the phone with former state Democratic Chairwoman June O’Neill, who informed me the police had been called to at least two polling sites in St. Lawrence County due to overzealous electioneering (O’Neill called it “voter intimidation”) by Doug Hoffman supporters.
Hoffman’s supporters – quite naturally – say, “no”:
(Apparently), the poll workers who are Owens supporters are doing the only thing they can do: Intimidate. And they’re doing that by calling the police. Nobody’s been arrested because nobody’s doing anything wrong.”
Be that as it may, the only safe harbor for the Hoffman campaigners appears to be brandishing truncheons at the polling booth since that behavior has been at least tacitly sanctioned by Attorney General Holder.
I had a feeling things would get ugly up in NY23, but this is pretty bad…and dropping the charges against the New Black Panther party in Philidelphia, when they had video and sworn evidence, doesn’t help!
We just voted here in Houston, and a couple of T-shirt [tight t-shirt wearing] young ladies told us to vote for somebody or other for the school board. For gosh sakes, they were hardly threatening, but isn’t that electioneering if done right in front of the polling booth? In my sweet old-lady way, I told them to please back off. IIRC, advocates for specific candidates are supposed to be at a distance from the voting booth.

The voter intimidation by uniformed thugs sanctioned by people in power…Nazi Germany right?….Right?
The comments by the leftists are deeply disturbing. The leftist indoctrination machine (AKA Public Schools) have done their despicable job quite well.
Interesting to me that the page no longer exists!! And we were just speaking of 1984 last night…..
I just opened both of them.
