1. These people remind of tactics used to block clinic access

I bet it's some of the same ones.

You know they have a lot of them on video over the years at the clinic entrances.

I wonder if they could be IDed in some cases.

Just a thought.

Probably NARAL or Planned Parenthood has list of RW activist and maybe they could cross match them with a list of Republican Poll challengers.
(lots of gung-ho RW religious Reps. who love to do that sort of thing; bully and intimidate)

4. Uh-oh,it's illegal to keep the alt-judge out...shame, shame
and the Repugs wouldn't return the phone call, what do you know. I am so shocked. I read elsewhere tonight (Nov2 website) that a Republican Election Judge would not allow a Dem Alt-Judge to accompany him while turning in the election paperwork. Shame, shame, shame...where are those values when you need them, eh? :shrug:
