.........
As a result, with early voting taking place in busy public places like City Halls and libraries, voters are voicing complaints of being blocked by political mobs, or being singled out for their political views. Others say they have been grabbed, screamed at and cursed by political partisans of all stripes.
Republican Rep. Tom Feeney of Oviedo said the antagonizers are "Kerry thugs" out to harass Bush voters.
"If you ask me whether I believe there is an organized effort to intimidate Republican voters, the answer is absolutely yes," said Feeney.
................
According to the affidavits Fletcher released:
One woman who voted early in Boca Raton, at the Southwest County Regional Library, complained that as she stood in line, two men behind her were "trashing our president," Fletcher said, declining to identify the woman. She tried to ignore them. Then the man touched her arm and said, "Who are you voting for?"
"I said, `I don't think that's an appropriate question,'" the woman said she responded.
"Uh oh! We have a Bush supporter here," screamed the man behind her.
For the 2 1/2 hours she had to wait in line, she was heckled by the man. As they neared the voting room, someone in the rear of the line yelled, "I sure hope everyone here is voting for Kerry!" she reported.
That's when the man behind her held his hand over her head and screamed, "We have a Republican right here!" There were "boos and jeers" from the crowd.
"I felt intimidated, harassed and threatened!" the woman wrote in her complaint to the Republican Party.

After that, a car speeding past hit me and two women in the face with a handful of rocks and dirt.
Palm Beach County has been flooded with Union thugs and they are committing serious acts of election violence.
Governor Bush needs to call out the National Guard to protect voters.
Why am I not surprised???
Same here..... how come I'm not surprised???
Where are the damn cops?
... and yet (Big Point here, people): they STILL were unable to prevent her from casting her vote for GWB.
They can't prevent ANY of us from casting our lawful ballots for GWB.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
There is no difference between the Democrat activists and the Taliban... Take a camera to the polls with you and start recording the indcidents it will make for a lively broadcast...
At their union meeting?
I wish the media,the few times they mention these intimidation tactics that are happening,would quit adding the prissy little qualifier,"both sides are doing it". Both sides are NOT doing it. It's been strictly 'rats who have vandalised B/C headquarters,harrassed voters at polling places,attacked Republican speakers(Ann Coulter),ripped the sign from a toddler's hands,and more. There hasn't been one single such act that I know of committed by a Republican supporter,it's been all 'rats,and yet they're the ones crying "intimidation",and the hypocritical media is out there saying "both sides do it",even though everytime they do,it's at the end of recounting yet another anecdote of 'rat harrassment.
They had it in Daytona here when I voted. man with a large K/E sign blocking the middle of the drive into the parking lot until you got right up on him, then he would slowly move out of the way. While at the same time the Volusia County Sheriff watching the scene from the front door was busy telling the B/C sign holder to stay OFF the gras median (???) while the K/E people walked around the middle of the parking area.
Daytona is so screwed up
The Mayor dissed the Presidents visit here the other week so she could go meet with Edwards. But then she did head a chapter of the NAACP, so what does one expect.
REPORT THUG TACTICS HERE: fairvote@georgewbush.com
She should have called 911 and reported an assault. Right then, right there.
Good question.
The NAZI Brown Shirts of the Democrat Socialist Party of America a (Democrat) are out in force.
PING
"All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing."
At this point the cops don't seem to be taking the election violence seriously.
I hope that will change in the next 48 hours.
Bttt!!!!!!!!
"Uh oh! We have a Bush supporter here," screamed the man behind her.
Tell them "Kerry, of course". I would, of course change my mind the instant I got the ballot. I wonder if this behavior changed any minds in the crowd.
Maybe we should be encouraging Bush voters to use the "buddy system" when they go to their polling places - someone to watch the voter's back and be a witness if any intimidation or violence occurs. Hmmmmm... maybe we all should also take our cameras with us, too, to do the MSM's work for them. The MSM is not going to be looking for evidence of Bush voters being attacked or bullied. Jeez, it sounds like it's almost as bad as when we counterprotest the lefties out on the streets.
Take a camera and a tape recorder if possible.
Ladies & Gentlemen,
It's time to visit the polling places with our video cameras.
This thread has inspired me to wear my new NRA "This dog don't hunt" tee shirt. I think I'm going to go trolling for liberals today. :)
I have pictures of the broken windows and from now on I'm bring a video camera everywhere I go, but it's going to take more then that.
