HOUSTON, TX - Friday afternoon at an early polling place located at 6719 W. Montgomery Road in Houston, NAACP members were seen advocating for President Barack Obama according to volunteer poll watchers on location at the time.

According to Eve Rockford, a poll watcher trained by voter integrity group True the Vote, three NAACP members showed up to the 139 precinct location with 50 cases of bottled water and began handing bottles out to people standing in line. While wearing NAACP labeled clothing, members were "stirring the crowd" and talking to voters about flying to Ohio to promote President Barack Obama.

Anyone here think Holder or the DOJ (or the local police or FBI) will be all over this??

Take your cell phones with you tomorrow to vote!! I have a feeling there is going to be a LOT of this going on at voting venues— in defiance of every Federal Voting Law.

Please read entire article too — it’s short.

You can rest assured that if a white group shows up at a polling place, hands out water to voters and rushes people voting for Romney to the front of the line, the President, Holder, and the entire “mainstream” media will make it the top news story for at least a week.

Voter intimidation. The “justice” department will not prosecute, and so is complicit in the crime.

Have there been any reports of the Texas State Troopers being sent in to at least report apparent criminal activity?

Hopefully there have been pictures taken as well.

Don't think these incidents in Texas aren't being dealt with. There is a Texas State Republican Party Ballot Security Team and I'm on it. Don't worry, we have been on the job for days and will be today and all day tomorrow until the polls close. I just want you to have a little less stress over what you may hear/see on TV that has to do with Texas. You see the reporter hyped up on wanting to make a problem huge but they never tell you what's happening to resolve the problem.

There have been a few, and I mean just a few, I think two, voting machines that weren't recording a vote properly but those were found before a ballot was cast and the machines were removed from service. They have to be re-calibrated and checked before they can be put back in service. So, if you hear Texas voting machines are “all crooked”, they aren't. If you vote tomorrow, look at the summary of your ballot before you hit “vote”. If it isn't correct, don't hit “vote” - go to the judge and don't leave until you have voted correctly.

A note about voting machines: Some people think voting machines are hooked to the internet and bad guys can hack into the machines and change votes. The machines are not hooked to the internet. They are fairly dumb machines that count votes for candidates and that's it. That count is also recorded in the internals of the machines as backup and no one can get to that backup count except a voting machine company technician.

I am becoming very upset with many black organizations. Add that the blacks in 2008 voted in mass for King Obama makes them raicial and less liked by most Americans. Ignoring the issues and voting for color is un-American.
