Justice Department To Monitor Philly Polls
By Wyatt Earp | October 30, 2010
Whew, thank God! I sure feel better now.
Philadelphia will be one of 30 jurisdictions where the U.S. Department of Justice plans to deploy observers or other personnel to monitor next week’s midterm elections. The department said Friday that it will be sending more than 400 federal observers and department personnel to monitor polls in 18 states. Officials say the workers will be on hand to ensure that voters’ rights are protected.
Okay, the cynic in me wants to laugh and laugh at this, but I saw a few of the observers this week and they look competent. The agent in charge is below the fold.

If they’re from the Justice Dept., they’ll be out to make sure fraud takes place at widespread polling places in favor of Joe Says Tax and Oh No! rato.

Bob – Sestak. I would not be surprised if the voters put this tool into office.
Proof – Word up, G!

Sigh… they’ll probably hold the night sticks for them…

Or they will prevent any videotaping so coverup is that much easier this time.

Old NFO – And get them coffee – black, of course.
Jon – No need. There was plenty of evidence and Obama dropped the charges anyway.

My station is a polling place. That always goes over well. We are expected to maintain operations with a house full of strangers trying to get into everything. I hate working on election day so I’m happy to be off this year.

Captain – I’m working daywork. I’ll stop and vote on my way home.

Bob G. – Whatever you do, make sure you vote on Tuesday! Too many people fought and died for that right.

I live at the other end of the WONDERFUL…… state of PA, just south of Pittsburgh. Fraud isn’t too bad in my immediate area, but in Pittsburgh itself it’s bad. However, I found an app for my smartphone that is fantastic.
It’s called ‘Voter Fraud’ and allows one to take a picture, and report it immediately without the hassle of taking the picture to a computer, uploading, and everything else. Instant notice to watchdog groups.
Additionally it includes incidents already recorded, and a few other features.
And it’s free.
I have half a mind (not sure where the other half went) to wander the area doing my own watch-dogging.

Redeemed Boyd – Seriously? If so, that’s awesome! And it certainly wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye on the polls. Lord knows the DoJ cannot be trusted.
