at the very least, i want anything that stops this

poll tampering crap, and people like Moore to not to exist in the form of polling cameras.

the thought of letting independents or progressives run the polls is amusing to me. independent is code for Republican, and progressive is code for Democrat.

i would say let it be ran by half of each, but they'd probably kill each other in some places.

"Violations" such as?

in ohio, you can not so much as have a sign up with a candidates name with 100 yards of a poll station. not only were there signs plastered everywhere, but there were people handing out flyers on why i should vote for this or against that, and why this candidate is good and the other bad. there was even one chick at Lady Raven's place who offered a couple guys oral sex in exchange for votes.

I always found it curious why people would want to speak with voters approaching polling places. Everything else be equal, I would tend to vote against the person/issue the guy was promoting just for stopping me and assuming he could change my opinion.

I think it's probably a valid strategy for lesser races that people might not know as much about. But I think it's probably pointless for high profile contests.

When I was going to the poll in November there was a guy in the parking lot who just kind of shouted over to me... "Vote for Prop 200".

And I'm wondering how many people actually were voting for the Proposition becase this stranger yelled at them.

That must be some church.

I despise electioneering. I feel the polling places should be free of that kind of stuff. But it's not real enforceable.
