Will Republicans be using pathetic illegal tactics like blocking off roads to voting stations like they did?

Question

last election?

Answer 1

No... the democrats will be using that one this time.

Answer 2

Like the State where Democratic Activists slashed the tires on all the GOTV vehicles to get the elderly to the polls.

OR the state where Democrat activists gave booze and cigs to homeless people to get them to vote.

their is vote fraud but it is marginal and both parties do it to some degree. Republicans don't use such blatant tactics as the democrats though

Answer 3

Of course. And don't forget "Bird Caging"

"Here’s how the scheme worked: The RNC mailed these voters letters in envelopes marked, “Do not forward”, to be returned to the sender. These letters were mailed to servicemen and women, some stationed overseas, to their US home addresses. The letters then returned to the Bush-Cheney campaign as “undeliverable.”

The lists of soldiers of “undeliverable” letters were transmitted from state headquarters, in this case Florida, to the RNC in Washington. The party could then challenge the voters’ registration and thereby prevent their absentee ballots being counted.

In 2004, African-American leaders denounced the caging scheme as “another ’shameful’ Republican effort to keep blacks from voting.”

So to respond to Goodling and Weisman: caging is a voter suppression tactic. Suppressing votes on the basis of race is not only illegal under the federal Voting Rights Act, but also unconstitutional.

Answer 4

They now they can't win unless they steal or cheat. Just like in 2000 they put signs in Louisiana that it will be raining tomorrow so we have been able to get it where you can vote the next day.

I don't think after Bush and Cheney they can't do anything to get that White House back to the Republicans. That Administration has been the worst and corrupt one that ever existed. I'll be so glad when January 20, 2009 gets here and send them on their way. I will celebrate all day long and the cities in Texas will cry all day long because he is hiding out , he states in Dallas . He want tell you because his goose is cooked and so is Cheney's. They'll have Secret Service but not like they do now just a few and I would'nt be in their shoes for anything in the world, .

Answer 5

Yep, blocking roads and don't forget the GOP guy convicted of phone jamming Democratic headquarters in the 2002 election.

Answer 6

It is the Democratic party that is notorious for voter fraud, not the Republicans. "Vote early, vote often", and votes cast by people who have passed away, as well as illegals whose name get on the voter lists are all Democratic party ploys.

Answer 7

Looks more like Democrats will resort to repeating their tired old lies (like yours above) to explain their losses.

(Fact: In 2004 over a dozen Bush headquarters nationwide were strafed with GUNFIRE; there were NO such attacks on Kerry offices. Yet NOT ONE of these cases has resulted in arrest, let alone conviction.)

Answer 8

This is the sort of thing one should be on guard for from EITHER political party.

Answer 9

It's much more honorable to wait outside the county jail and cull from the ranks of drunks and junkies.

Dem tactics that Cicero would surely approve of...

Answer 10

Yes.
To help make up for the millions of Dead Democrats that vote each election.
And to help make up for the million illegals that the Democrats get registered to vote each election.

Close, but no soggy cigar for you, honey.

Answer 11

Really they didn't let the poor English men vote. Your name is a joke, right ?
