Well, I'm still waiting for an answer to where in Fl. this happened.
Yeah, decals and stickers seem to be jerk-magnets.
I just spoke to my brother outside Ft. Lauderdale. He said that the intimidation was probably true- but only in a few places, like inner city areas. He said that his wife voted near work this morning in a heavily democrat area. There were many K signs and stickers, and no Bush, but no obvious harrassment. Of course, she had no bumper sticker. He also said that anyone intimidated can go back later. There are many 72 hour volunteers there, but they won't start until nearer 11/2. As he said, most Republicans work! Those who couldn't vote earlier will have a better chance then. He also said that the area outside the cities is much more conservative.
Well, my Bush/Cheney and W'04 bumper stickers give me away ;^)
Plus I've got my car flag and my "God Bless America" sticker :)

I got this email from the Florida B/C Headquarters this afternoon:

Unfortunately, as the early voting period has started so have reports of voter intimidation and questionable electioneering. Numerous Bush supporters have contacted our Florida headquarters to report aggressive and hostile activity at and inside polling places by Kerry supporters and their allies.
The best way to stop this behavior is to simply report it. So don't let the Democrats get away with this.
