Intimidating and misleading billboards and mailings, "Republican poll watchers", the Romney family knee deep in bed with executives and their companies that are providing the voting machines for this election... Will Republicans stop at nothing to win this election? In Pennsylvania, the courts ruled that picture voter IDs could not be required until AFTER the 2012 election. So then why are there billboards up in Pennsylvania in black and Hispanic neighborhoods saying that picture IDs are required? As an African-American, I am appalled and galled, not only that this is happening, but that it is being allowed to happen, in multiple states!
The Romney campaign is training "poll watchers", those enlisted to troll polling places to intimidate and harass voters, to lie about who they actually represent. They are being told to say they are "Concerned Citizens" rather than representatives of "Team Romney". Yes, this is actually in a Romney campaign training manual. What a travesty on so many levels! Courageous people, both black and white, risked their lives to see that African-Americans were given the right to vote. Who is it that will finally stand up and say, "We will not allow history to repeat itself!!!"???
