"I just hope people are taking pictures of the SEIU thugs and documenting any voter fraud taking place."

Isn't that a crime now with the new hate-crimes laws?

Can't argue with you...prepare now.

Not going to happen— Corzine pulls this off. 55 for Corzine on intrade. That freakin sux.

You do know that the Intrade numbers are not a prediction of margin, right?

The polls are NOT closed in NJ. This is simply to discourage Christie voters.

Hope their wearing the purple uniform works in out favor....Many time people are not aware just WHO are the workers for a candidate.

Can any of the activities be construed as voter intimidation?

“The last thing these union bosses want is for their members to have “job security”.’

I don’t understand your statement. The more the members work, the more money is paid by their employers (construction companies), into the union coffers , by way of matching funds, dues and annuities.

We need to show the country that we are a force to be reckoned with

I thought that was against the law to be in voting areas.

Laws...we don't need no stinkin' laws, this is New Jersey.

They’re not allowed to do that anymore here where I live! Of course, our little community is still quite conservative, and I don’t think we’ve ever had that behavior here. But they’ve become really strict on voter id, for the first time! They’re really picky about what voters can use, if they don’t have a valid id or dr. license!

They’ll allow lots of picture id, (as long as it’s current)bills, soc. sec. cards, military id, etc.. But you have to have 2 forms of ‘other id’. You can use bank statements or utility bills, but they’re really restricted on what you can use!

I’ve never had to show id before, in 43 years. I’ve been so spoiled, I didn’t expect this. However, in spite of that, I’m glad they’re doing it! I’m just hoping everyone around the nation has to do it, and that they’re just as strict! It’s just sad that because people and groups have gotten away with cheating, that voters in other more honest places have to show id at all!

Then why do the union bosses keep pushing politicians who tax and regulate their members' employers into bankruptcy?

It worked out well for GM and Chrysler. The Government and the unions drove them into bankruptcy and then they conspired to take over the businesses.

That’s exactly my point. I don’t understand it, it’s plain stupidity to me.

Have not read the text of the Bill just passed.

Are Union members now a Protected class?

It’s about POWER. Union bosses could care less about the rank and file. They are politicians and their existence is dependent upon creating a climate of FEAR among their pawns. If the pawns are comfortable they might start thinking that they don’t need these union bosses to protect them from their evil intentioned employers.

ah my wife is from Quincy but like you she believes that when one moves to an area then she adapts and not tell natives how they should be, what flag they should not fly, what they can and cannot believe in.

Folks like you are the folks we need, the folks with their left wing nutty pompous agenda and views are not what we need.

I hope you are enjoying life and I can assure you my wife is and has no regrets about moving away .

BTW where are you from, ie.e town? if you don’t mind me asking

also we have found that those from the north when taking a left at the lights go in the middle of the intersection and sit there waiting to go even if the light turns red, or when there is traffic they go through on a green even if it means blocking an intersection, which to us doesn’t even make sense and actually grinds me off as now that person is blocking the intersection for others when the lights turn color
